Hamirpur: Union minister Anurag Thakur on Monday attacked Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal, saying he talked big on corruption before entering politics but now several leaders of his party are in prison for graft. Speaking to reporters here after a meeting of BJP functionaries of the Hamirpur Lok Sabha seat, he also targeted the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress over the recent attack on Enforcement Directorate (ED) staff in West Bengal.
The Union information and broadcasting minister said it has become a habit of the Trinamool Congress to question constitutional institutions and sometimes, even attack independent investigative agencies. Attacking the Delhi chief minister, Thakur said Arvind Kejriwal used to talk big on corruption before entering politics but today, he is embracing Congress leaders. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Congress are "brothers in corruption", he claimed.
