Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Admi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday alleged that seven Aam Aadmi Party MLAs were offered Rs 25 crore each to leave the party and contest elections on Bharatiya Janata Party tickets instead.
Kejriwal claimed the party was told that 21 MLAs were contacted in all.
“However, as per our information, they contacted seven MLAs, all of whom refused the offer,” he said.
He also alleged that the party was told that he would be arrested in some days, after which, attempts would be made to get the MLAs to defect from the party.
In his social media post, he reiterated his claim that accusations against Aam Aadmi Party leaders in the alleged liquor scam are part of a conspiracy to topple the Delhi government.
Kejriwal said that in the last nine years, the BJP hatched many conspiracies in an attempt to topple his government. “But they did not get any success,” he said.
He asserted that all his MLAs are firm and united to defeat the “nefarious intentions” of the BJP.
