Don’t try Najeeb Jung, Modi won’t appoint a Muslim as vice-president, tweets Kejriwal; gets trolled

नजीब जंग ने उप राष्ट्रपति बनने के लिए अपनी आत्मा को मोदी को बेच दिया। पर मोदी कभी मुस्लिम को उप राष्ट्रपति नहीं बनाएँगे,जंग जो मर्ज़ी कर लें

Kejriwal’s remark didn’t go down well with Modi’s supporters who trolled the chief minister for touching that low. Twitterati lashed out at Kejriwal and accused him of playing communal politics.

The chief minsiter also dubbed Jung a “Hitler” for appointing an IAS officer as Member Secretary of the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW). “LG is acting like Hitler, following in footsteps of his masters Modi (and BJP President) Amit Shah,” Kejriwal tweeted.

Jung had on Tuesday appointed IAS officer Dilraj Kaur as the Member Secretary of DCW, which is headed by Swati Maliwal. The appointment was done eight days after Kejriwal sought the removal of incumbent Alka Dewan, terming her appointment unconstitutional and against the wishes of the Delhi government.

कंज़र की बेशर्मी हर दिन बढ़ती जा रही है.. पीएम बनने का ख्वाब है लेकिन कर्म ही ख़राब है,जितनी मर्जी उछले, पीएम नहीं बन सकता।

Everyday you touch a new political low. If this was what you wanted to do anyway, why did you launch a new party? @ArvindKejriwal

Kejriwal has been at the receiving end of the Twitterati’s anger in recent time for his constant tweets on demonetisation also.

The appointment of member secretary to the DCW (Delhi Commission for Women) recently emerged as yet another flashpoint between Kejriwal and Jung. Kejriwal had termed as “unconstitutional” the earlier appointment of Alka Diwan to the same post, saying Jung had overlooked the name suggested by the government.

DCW chief Swati Maliwal had alleged that the appointment of Diwan led to the stalling of the functioning of the Commission and was subverting its autonomy.
