Union Home Minister and Bharatiya Janata Party President Amit Shah on Monday launched a scathing attack on Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, accusing him of supporting the 'Tukde Tukde gang'.

This comes just ahead of the announcement of the schedule for Delhi polls.

"Students who raised anti-India slogans should be put behind the bars or not? But Kejriwal (Delhi CM) is not giving sanction to Police to prosecute them," he said.

He also accused Kejriwal of harming the poor by not implementing the Ayushman Bharat scheme for his political interests.

He said, "The AAP Govt in Delhi has caused the most harm to the poor of Delhi. Kejriwal ji just for his political interests is not allowing Ayushman Bharat scheme to be implemented. Ppl have now seen through you Kejriwal ji, AAP was wiped out in MCD and Lok Sabha polls."

He also attacked the Congress, along with the Aam Aadmi Party, and accused them of misleading the minorities of the country. He also held them responsible for the riots that took place over the amended citizenship law.

He said, "AAP and Congress, especially Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi are misleading the minorities of the country. Nobody's citizenship will be revoked under CAA, it is an act to give citizenship. These parties are responsible for the riots which broke out."
