Diversion tactics

By filing a civil defamation case against Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, Union finance minister Arun Jaitley has successfully diverted media and public attention away from the alleged misuse of Central Bureau of Investigation to look into Mr Kejriwal’s files. Sadly, Mr Kejriwal has taken the bait and seems to be reverting to his “anarchist” tactics. As for the BJP, this victimisation of the Delhi government shows it to be far from federal.
