“Amit Shah BJP’s Gujarat Chief Minister Pick?”: Arvind Kejriwal Jabs Party

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday said the BJP is “horrified” by the Aam Aadmi Party’s rapid growth in Gujarat and wondered if it is planning to declare Union Home Minister Amit Shah as its chief ministerial candidate in the Assembly polls in the state.

In a cryptic tweet, the national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) also wondered if the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is not happy with the work of Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendrabhai Patel.

“Is it true that the BJP is going to declare Amit Shah ji as the chief ministerial face in the Gujarat Assembly polls?” Kejriwal asked in a tweet in Hindi. “Is the BJP angry with Bhupendrabhai Patel’s work?” he also asked.

In March, Kejriwal had posted a tweet wondering if Lakshadweep’s Administrator Praful K Patel will be made the next lieutenant governor of Delhi. Anil Baijal was the Delhi LG then.

On April 7, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia claimed that the BJP was considering replacing Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur with Union minister Anurag Thakur ahead of the Assembly polls in the state.
