New Delhi: The Centre is at "war" with students, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday alleged and warned Prime Minister Narendra Modi against provoking them which he said will make his chair "shaky" and tore into the ruling BJP for "distributing" certificates of nationalism.
Addressing students protesting against Dalit scholar Rohith Vemula's suicide, Kejriwal demanded the immediate arrest of "Central Ministers" who "forced" him to take the extreme step and accused the ruling BJP for opening a "front" against Dalits.
"I have said this before, Modi ji don't mess with students. If the students of the country come together, they will shake your chair like never before," Kejriwal said to loud cheers.
"What happened that youth who had supported Modi have risen against him today? This government seems to be at war with students of the country. Now they have started distributing certificates of patriotism. They are distributing certificates as to who is a patriot and who is a traitor.
"For them the biggest patriot is Nathuram Godse and the biggest traitor is Kanhaiya. The biggest patriot is Adityanath and traitor Mahatma Gandhi. Biggest patriot Sadhvi Ritambhara and biggest traitor Aamir Khan. For them all these scoundrels and ruffians are patriots," he said. Kejriwal said that anyone can be "beaten up or raped" in the pretext of raising anti-India slogans. "They will justify it using this argument".
"It's unfortunate that till date the ministers in dock have not even been questioned once and we talk of equality. What sort of an quality is this wherein the ministers who forced a boy to commit suicide are roaming openly?
"We demand their immediate arrest and questioning. At least question them. Your probe is prejudiced and it seems that you have made up your mind not to act against your ministers," he said.
