Arvind Kejriwal accuses PM Narendra Modi as a black money holder
The demonetisation move taken by the central government received mixed response. Many people have turned against the government’s sudden decision to scrap the notes that has caused trouble for many citizens across the country.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had earlier slammed the move, accusing BJP of informing their party members before hand itself.
Earlier today, the Delhi Government passed a resolution asking President Pranab Mukherjee to direct the center to withdraw the demonetisation scheme.
This assembly resolves to urge upon the Honourable President of India to take necessary steps to institute a high-level probe to be monitored by the Honourable Supreme Court of India to look into the allegations that the scheme is fraud on the nation and that it has been launched to benefit a particular political party through its agents in black money, the resolution said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s demonetisation initiative is like poison for the common man said Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
In the special session of the Delhi Assembly, Kejriwal accused the Narendra Modi of protecting his the corporates and exploiting the poor.
Arvind Kejriwal further accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi for taking a bribe Rs 25 crore as a bribe from the Aditya Birla Group firm when he held the office as the Gujarat Chief Minister.

“On 15 October 2013, the income tax department conducted raid in the house of Shubendu Amitabh, president of the group executive of Aditya Birla Group. His Blackberry phones, laptop everything was thoroughly checked. They found a ledger entry in his laptop stating that on 16 November 2012, the Gujarat Chief Minister was paid Rs 25 crores,” Arvind Kejriwal said.
“This raid happened in 2013. The Congress was in power. But they should have initiated action given that Narendra Modi was projected as Prime Minister face for BJP. Then it means that the BJP and Congress had deals between them. They must have thought that once Narendra Modi becomes the PM, he will help them in the Robert Vadra case,” Arvind Kejriwal added.
Arvind Kejriwal urged the central government to rollback the demonetisation initiative that has affected the common man’s day to day life. He also said he and his party is not against black money and asked the government to give proper time to people. He said they will support this drive once the government plans it properly without affecting the citizens of the country.
