The Delhi Chief Minister is lodged in Tihar jail in a money laundering case related to the alleged excise scam. He was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate on March 21.
Swaraj said, "You will see in 2025 that lotus will bloom in Delhi.The only impact (of Kejriwal's arrest on the elections) will be - this time it will cross 400, Modi government once again."
AAP has accused BJP of trying to end it before the Lok Sabha elections. Citing the recent order of the High Court, Swaraj said that Kejriwal is a very experienced politician.
She claimed that the Chief Minister knew that elections were round the corner, so she created this situation and wanted to be arrested at this very moment to create a false story of sympathy.
Swaraj is making her electoral debut by contesting against Aam Aadmi Party leader Somnath Bharti.The party fielded two-time sitting MP and Union Minister Meenakshi Lekhi.
The BJP leader claimed that the saffron party will capture power in the national capital in the 2025 Delhi Assembly elections, ending the back-to-back victories of the Kejriwal-led AAP in the last two assembly elections.
In the context of the 2025 assembly elections, she said, "You will see 25 is huge. I am telling you that people in Delhi are very fed up with the corruption of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal...
"On one hand, he (Kejriwal) had sworn to his children that he would never ally with the Congress, but now he has taken a 180 degree U-turn and become an ally of the Congress. This shows that his Children had no value.He alleged that the party was steeped in corruption and it had "eroded the credibility" of the Chief Minister.
