Kejriwal takes potshots at BJP over Gadkari

January 16, 2013 22:14

Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal today expressed 'surprise' over the likely appointment of Nitin Gadkari as the BJP president for the second time, and claimed the saffron party has now lost moral right to raise voice against corruption.

"Despite number of serious allegations against Gadkari, it is surprising that BJP has almost decided to give a second term to its president," Kejriwal said.

This gives a clear signal to BJP-ruled states that they must shield the corrupt, he said.
