New Delhi, May 15

BJP president Manoj Tiwari said after a tweet statement of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's wife Sunita Kejriwal today on former minister Kapil Mishra’s campaign against corruption and scams, it seems that she could succeed Kejriwal in the CM office.

If Sunita Kejriwal succeeds, it will be a Bihar-like political development when Rabri Devi had replaced her husband Laloo Yadav as Chief Minister, Tiwari said.

He said it appeared that the AAP now stood the league of clan politics like Congress, Samajwadi Party, RJD, BSP and BJD where the relatives of the party heads acted as the public faces.

“With corruption charges haunting him badly, soon we may find Kejriwal's wife succeeding him in the CM office like,” he said.

Sunita’s joining the issue by calling Kapil Mishra a traitor “vishwasghati” shows that she understands the importance of Mishra’s legal evidence, Tiwari said.

Tiwari also attended a meeting of party councillors and said a great responsibility now rested on their shoulders as unlike in the past the present councillors had given a “sankalp patra” — commitment to develop Delhi as a model national Capital of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s dream.

“We have to ensure a total digitalization of municipal services within two years and within 365 days we have to make Delhi a garbage-free city, where garbage accumulation is not allowed at any place for more than 24 hours,” he added.

BJP in charge Shyam Jaju, who was also in the meeting, said people of Delhi have overwhelmingly voted to elect BJP councillors as they expect a transparent and honest administration unlike the anarchic miss-governance they have been witnessing at Delhi state-level for the past two years.

“Our councillors will have to work hard to give good municipal services while on the other hand, they will have to help the people get better services from the state government offices by putting public pressure on authorities as the Kejriwal government is busy in its infighting.
