Will form coalition of 130 crore Indians, says Arvind Kejriwal | Top quotes

Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal spoke exclusively to India Today on Monday on a number of issues, including The Kashmir Files, the BJP and the AAP.

It is Arvind Kejriwal’s dream that the aam aadmi of this country can decide his own future. Our country has a lot of talent, all they need is a little support,” he said.

Kejriwal, who is also the national convener of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), accused the BJP of “playing gimmicks”. He further alleged that BJP leaders are “unhappy” over how the party’s central leadership is “using” them to promote The Kashmir Files.

The Delhi Chief Minister said proceeds of The Kashmir Files should be donated for the welfare and rehabilitation of Kashmiri Pandits.

Here are top quotes from Arvind Kejriwal’s interview:

• “I haven’t seen The Kashmir Files. What I am saying is that Kashmiri Pandits don’t want a film, they want rehabilitation.”
• “If we had a government at the Centre, I assure you [Kashmiri Pandits] that instead of making a movie on you, I would hold your hand and drop you off at your home in Kashmir.”
• “Why would I make jibes at him [PM Modi]? He is mine and the country’s Prime Minister. It is about issues.”
• “I have no enmity with anyone. I am not here against BJP, Congress, Modi ji, Sonia ji or Rahul Gandhi ji. It is only the country that I think about.”
• “In Delhi and in Punjab, we did not do any negative politics. Wherever we go, we will talk about the issues and people of that state.”
• “Whatever is written in the Ramayana and the Gita, that is Hindutva. Lord Ram never taught anyone enmity.”
• “What does an aam aadmi want? Education for their children and jobs for themselves.”
• “We will do something to solve Delhi’s pollution issue. We will announce a plan soon.”
