Ousted Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) minister Kapil Mishra stunned everyone on May 7 after he claimed that he had seen Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal accepting a bribe of Rs 2 crore at his residence from Delhi Health Minister Satyendra Jain. He has also claimed that he has the required evidence to prove his claims.
However, Delhi’s Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia has denied all the allegations and have termed his allegations as “absurd” and “baseless”. He also said that such allegations are not even worth responding to. Kapil Mishra’s allegations comes a day after he was removed as the water minister of Delhi.
However, Mishra has claimed that he was removed from the post because he “exposed” the water tanker scam. Meanwhile, the party has maintained he was removed because the water management was not up to the mark. AAP has also hinted Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) role in creating a rift within the party. In fact, not long ago, Arvind Kejriwal had held an emergency meeting and urged the senior party leaders to not allow the BJP to break the party. AAP has also claimed that Mishra was only making such claims because he was removed from his post.
A number of AAP supporters have come out to claim that Kapil Mishra’s allegations were nothing but BJP conspiring to wipe off AAP from Delhi.

What was most ludicrous for me was these 2 clowns thought they were negotiating with BJP in secret when in fact the whole town knew. Liars.

Note he does it say “convicted by court” he says “arrested” knowing well his BJP sponsors can arrest anyone for no reason. Hocus Pocus Kapil https://t.co/uJAn1wIZ40

So he has no proof, changed his tanker story, no credibility but strong belief that Satyendra Jain will be arrested in 10 days. Wah BJP wah!

I might agree with charges of power greed, arrogance, authoritarianism against Kejriwal, but charge of taking bribe need solid evidence.

Satyendar Jain had invited Kapil Mishra to be a witness while he was handing over cash so that a nice Bollywood script could be written…

Arvind Kejriwal has not responded to the allegations as yet. However, Mishra has demanded an inquiry into the issue and has asked Arvind Kejriwal to explain where he got the money from.
