Addressing a public rally in Delhi’s Mehrauli on Tuesday, 7 May, MP and BJP’s South Delhi candidate Ramesh Bidhuri abused Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal by calling him a ‘pimp’, reported The Indian Express.
The daily reported that the event was organised to garner Purvanchali votes for Bidhuri, who attacked Kejriwal and said, “Abey, ye Kejriwal bhi bhadwa hai. Ye kab tak rokega? He only has five to six months left (Kejriwal is a pimp. How long will he be able to stop the case?).”
As Bidhuri took the stage, he appealed to the crowd to shout ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’ and said that the slogan should be chanted so loud that it shakes up the ‘tukde tukde gang’ in JNU, The Indian Express quoted him as saying.
Bidhuri was referring to the sedition case filed against Kanhaiya Kumar and others over an event organised at the Jawaharlal Nehru University in 2016.
Referring to the failed talks of an alliance between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Congress in Delhi, Bidhuri said that despite swearing on his children that he will never forge an alliance with the Congress, Kejriwal was “licking Sheila Dikshit’s boots until six months ago”.
To appease his voters in Mehrauli, Bidhuri also promised them that he will rename the park in Mehrauli where they celebrate Chhat as ‘Chhat Park’.
Bidhuri was joined by Union minister Giriraj Singh, who referred to Kejriwal as a member of the ‘tukde tukde’ gang and asked the voters to not get “influenced by anyone”. Singh also spoke about the film, Sexy Durga, Singh, saying, “If somebody calls my mother or sister sexy, I will want to rip their chest out.”
