Chandigarh, April 23, 2024: Punjab BJP president Sunil Jakhar took a dig at Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann for comparing Delhi CM Arvind Kerjiwal's jail term comparison with Sahara group chairman Subroto Roy.
Jakhar was commenting on the statement made by CM Mann in an exclusive interview with Indian Express.
"In an interview CM Punjab Sh. Bhagwant Mann has equated Sh Arvind Kejriwal’s detention with that of Subrata Roy’s term in Tihar jail. Just as Subroto Roy, CMD of Sahara group of companies, was in Tihar along with two directors of his company, Sh. Kejriwal, CM of Delhi is in Tihar jail with two of his ministers. Also, while Roy and his directors were arrested for chit fund scam, Sh Kejriwal and his two ministers were arrested for a liquor policy scam. Even though there are too many similarities in both their cases, I find it quite intriguing that Sh. Bhagwant Mann has chosen the case of a person, who is accused of duping millions of poor people,to plead for his supremo Sh Kejriwal. One wonders whether this comparison is inadvertent or intentional !," wrote Sunil Jakhar on X.
