“Shame”: Kejriwal Slams Centre On BS Yeddyurappa’s Remark

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has slammed Karnataka BJP chief BS Yeddyurappa for his remark that India’s preemptive air strike on a terror camp in Pakistan has created a wave in favour of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Mr Kejriwal also raised question whether the tension between the two countries was orchestrated by the BJP for reaping political benefits.

“Former BJP CM Yeddyurappa’s statement has come that 40 Jawans have been martyred now we will win 22 seats. I want to ask them how many Jawans you want martyred for 300 seats, how many women widowed, how many corpses you want how many families will you destroy. Shame on such a party and the government,” Mr Kejriwal said in the Delhi Assembly.

Mr Yeddyurappa on Wednesday said India’s preemptive strikes on terror camps in Pakistan has created a wave in favour of PM Modi and will help the party win over 22 out of 28 Lok Sabha seats in Karnataka. “The country cannot tolerate that when their is tension with Pakistan our Prime Minister is busy with strengthening booth. BJP is counting corpses and seats. Was all this on the Indo-Pak border done by you for it”, the Delhi chief minister said.
