Hansi (Dinkar Gawdi):- The Aam Aadmi Party has strongly condemned the demand for an extortion amount of Rs 7 crore from former Delhi Chief Minister and party National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal, along with threats to kill him and his daughter Harshita in the name of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang if the extortion money was not paid. AAP leaders and workers across the country are deeply outraged by this threat. In a statement issued to the press, Rajendra Sorkhi, member of the party's National Council and Hansi District President, said that such despicable tactics were being adopted in view of the growing popularity of the Aam Aadmi Party across the country. He said that the party's courageous leaders would not be intimidated by such empty threats. He alleged that, seeing the party's steadily growing reputation, the BJP government was bent on subjecting AAP leaders and workers to various forms of harassment day after day.

In this case, after AAP MLA Jarnail Singh from Delhi's Tilak Nagar received threatening phone calls and WhatsApp messages, a complaint was lodged at the police station. The party has strongly demanded the strictest possible action against those issuing the threats.

Senior AAP leader Rajendra Sorkhi said that recently, the BJP government had also resorted to disgraceful acts against Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. He said that Sher-e-Punjab Bhagwant Mann had been giving the BJP a strong response in Punjab and would continue to show the party the mirror in the upcoming elections as well. He said that governments come and go, but acting out of revenge or discrimination is entirely wrong. The BJP government should mend its ways in time; otherwise, when the time comes, the people of the country will teach the BJP and its leaders a lesson.
