Delhi CM Kejriwal surrenders meekly

Delhi Chief Minister and AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal has meekly surrendered to former Punjab Revenue Minister Bikram Singh Majithia because of his unfounded allegation against him. Kejriwal had alleged that Majithia was involved in Drug trafficking, which he has realized now that it was unfounded. That is why Delhi CM tendered an apology to him. The Delhi Chief Minister had settled the defamation case filed against him by the former Punjab revenue minister and said that he has learnt that the drug trade allegations were unfounded. Kejri said it was a political statement that he alleged Majithia was involved in drug trading. It was election time statement and it must not be taken so much seriously. In reaction to Kejriwal's unsought apology, AAP Punjab unit President and MP Bhagwat Mann has already resigned from his post. He said that Kejriwal did not discuss the issue of apology with any party functionary of the state. His "meek surrender" had drawn flak from AAP's Punjab unit leaders who termed Kejriwal's step a "letdown". Leader of Opposition in Punjab Assembly and senior AAP leader Sukhpal Singh Khaira said he was appalled by the apology. The realization of talking too much appears to have dawned on Kejriwal that led him to tender an apology to Bikram Singh Majithis. But it would have suited his political stature if he had leveled allegation with any authenticity. Kejriwal is not a layman. He is the CM of Delhi. He must issue statement responsibly. Politics is not a child's play that it is played by whim. It is a serious field of activities so every politician must think twice before opening his or her mouth against a political rival. Kejri is habituated to talking tall but in the same way unable to collect evidence to corroborate his allegation. The defamation case was already slapped by Majithia against him. It appears that it is out of fear that Delhi CM apologized to Majithia. He feared that if the case continued, it might be possible that he would go to jail. It is also clear that Kejri speaks without a shred of truth in it. So, he apologized to Majithia in haste. Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitely has also filed a defamation case against Delhi CM Kejri in a Delhi court. It is expected that Kejriwal would tender apology also to him. Kejriwal may face a rebellion within his party over his tendering unsought apology. Kejri must think twice before leveling charges. By slapping unfounded charges, he has cut a sorry figure in Delhi among his supporters and sympathizers. Now, there is every possibility that Arvind Kejriwal would tender an apology for alleging him of corruption in DDCA. Kejri has the habit of talking too much. He is loquacious. He forgets about himself while making a statement before the people. Kejriwal now need not be introduced. Provide him a platform to speak, he would start blaming others for messing up everything. His main idea of politics is to defame one and all except himself. But now his idea is exposed before the people of the country.
