SISODIA SLAMS BJP FOR FAKING KEJRIWAL VIDEO

- DC CORRESPOND­ENT

Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia on Sunday lashed out at Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and said that the viral video of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal promoting farm laws is doctored.

While addressing a press conference, Sisodia said, “Yesterday the BJP and its spokespers­on posted a doctored video of Arvind Kejriwal ji stating benefits of farm laws. I was furious over it, but also felt sad for BJP that it had to post a distorted video clip of Arvind ji to establish the credibilit­y of the laws.”

Sisodia further targeted the Centre and said that it has lost its credibilit­y.

“Today, not only BJP, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also lost credibilit­y. BJP understand­s this very well, that is why they posted a doctored video of Arvind Kejriwal ji,” he added.

In a tweet in Hindi, the national spokespers­on of BJP Sambit Patra on Saturday shared a video of Arvind Kejriwal and said, “Sir ji (Arvind Kejriwal) counts the benefits of farms laws. See video.”

Farmers have been protesting at different borders of the national capital since November 26, 2020, against the farm laws: Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitati­on) Act, 2020, the Farmers (Empowermen­t and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Act, 2020, and the Essential Commoditie­s (Amendment) Act, 2020.

● NOT ONLY BJP, but the PM has also lost credibilit­y. BJP understand­s this very well, that is why they posted a doctored video of Kejriwal, Sisodia said.
