“Has the son become so big now that it is showing attitude to his mother?” Kejriwal said at a rally where he demanded five answers from Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat.
The questions he asked were political softballs but the implication of bringing Bhagwat into his new political narrative is new and unusual.
Kejriwal wanted to know if the RSS agreed with the BJP’s politics of using central agencies to break up parties and topple opposition governments, and inducting “corrupt” leaders into its fold.
In his first ‘Janta ki Adalat’ public meeting at Jantar Mantar following his resignation as Delhi chief minister, Kejriwal also asked Bhagwat if the BJP’s rule on age of retirement would apply to Modi as it did for LK Advani.
He questioned Bhagwat if he agreed with the BJP’s politics of calling politicians “corrupt” and then inducting them into its fold.
In another question, the AAP supremo asked Bhagwat how he felt when BJP chief JP Nadda said his party did not need the RSS, which is the saffron party’s ideological mentor.
While Kejriwal was addressing the gathering, the BJP held a protest against him and AAP on issues of corruption at Connaught Place, barely a kilometre away from Jantar Mantar.
