NEW DELHI: Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday intensified the Aam Aadmi Party's offensive against the BJP, asserting that those who criticize his party's stance on the Ram Mandir theft row are trying to divert attention from the real issue. Kejriwal vowed that he "won't rest until they are hanged," referring to the perpetrators behind the alleged theft, and criticized the BJP for using religion as a political tool. This comes amid accusations from the BJP labeling Kejriwal as a "political Hindu," a term they claim highlights his inconsistent approach to religious matters. Kejriwal's comments come at a time of heightened tensions over the Ram Mandir issue, which has been a longstanding point of contention in Indian politics. The AAP leader accused the BJP of exploiting religious sentiments for electoral gains while ignoring the need for justice in the theft case. He emphasized that his party is committed to ensuring accountability and justice, dismissing the BJP's allegations as baseless attempts to undermine the AAP's credibility. In response to the BJP's critique, Kejriwal called for a focus on justice rather than political rhetoric. He urged the public to see through the BJP's tactics, reiterating that his commitment to the case is unwavering. The Delhi Chief Minister also highlighted his party's efforts to address broader issues of governance and accountability, contrasting it with what he described as the BJP's divisive approach. As the political discourse heats up, the AAP is positioning itself as a party dedicated to justice and truth.
