'BJP walo.. ye paani tumhare liye bhi hai..'

This very old video of Arvind Kejriwal highlights a major turning point for Delhi. When AAP first came to power, they realized the city lacked even the most basic infrastructure.

In the following years, the AAP government created a concrete blueprint and systematically laid pipelines in areas that had never seen running water. It is hard to imagine a nation's capital where homes lacked basic water access, but Arvind Kejriwal solved that crisis.

Flash forward to today... the pipelines built by the AAP government are still there, but the taps are running completely dry. The BJP has dismantled the progress. Despite boasting a powerful "four-engine government" in the region, they have proven utterly useless.

Delhiites are today missing that one leader who actually delivered results, despite operating with limited power and facing constant hurdles...

बस राघव चड्ढा, संजय सिंह न बन सके…

बाक़ी, अब पंजाब में बिल्कुल वही हो रहा है, जो दिल्ली में हो चुका है!

वही बीजेपी की ED, वही CBI, वही भ्रष्टाचार की कहानियाँ, वही गिरफ्तारियां, और उसी तरीक़े के किरदार…

अब पंजाब के मंत्री संजीव अरोड़ा के साथ वही हो रहा है, जो दिल्ली के मंत्री सतेंद्र जैन के साथ हुआ था!

अब पंजाब के पार्टी प्रमुख और मंत्री अमन अरोड़ा के साथ वही होगा, जो दिल्ली के उपमुख्यमंत्री मनीष सिसोदिया के साथ हुआ था।

चूँकि राघव चड्ढा पहले ही मैदान छोड़कर भाग चुके हैं, उनमें वो हिम्मत नहीं थी जो राज्य सभा सांसद संजय सिंह में थी,

इसलिए पंजाब से AAP का कोई प्रखर वक्ता और राज्य सभा सांसद इस बार जेल नहीं जाएगा!

इतना ही नहीं, पंजाब में बीजेपी द्वारा उठाया जा रहा हर एक क़दम दिल्ली जैसा ही है...

जैसे सबसे पहले दिल्ली में तत्कालीन आप सरकार के मंत्री सतेंद्र जैन, मनीष सिसोदिया के यहाँ CBI-ED के छापे पड़े थे!

अब पंजाब में आप सरकार के मंत्री संजीव अरोड़ा और अमन अरोड़ा के यहाँ ED के छापे पड़े!

तब दिल्ली में सतेंद्र जैन, मनीष सिसोदिया बारी बारी से CBI-ED द्वारा गिरफ़्तार किए गए थे।

अब पंजाब में संजीव अरोड़ा ED द्वारा गिरफ़्तार किए जा चुके हैं, जल्द ही अमन अरोड़ा भी गिरफ़्तार हो सकते हैं!

तब बीजेपी का मीडिया तंत्र दिल्ली में तथाकथित शराब घोटाले की काल्पनिक कहानी बड़े ही सुनियोजित तरीके से ब्रॉडकास्ट करता था।

अब बीजेपी का वही मीडिया तंत्र पंजाब में तथाकथित ज़मीन घोटाले और नोटों की गड्डियाँ मिलने जैसी कहानियों पर प्रायोजित कंटेंट चला रहा है!

तब सतेंद्र जैन, मनीष सिसोदिया और अरविंद केजरीवाल को बीजेपी "भ्रष्टाचारी" कहती थी!

अब संजीव अरोड़ा, अमन अरोड़ा और भगवंत मान को बीजेपी का तंत्र "भ्रष्टाचारी" घोषित करेगा!!

तब अरविंद केजरीवाल सहित दिल्ली की चुनिंदा विधानसभा में वोट काटे और जोड़े गए थे!

पर अब इस मामले में पंजाब में दिल्ली वाली नहीं, बल्कि पश्चिम बंगाल वाली स्क्रिप्ट लागू होगी।

लिहाज़ा, पंजाब में भी SIR के नाम पर बड़े पैमाने पर वोट काटे और जोड़े जायेंगे!

और चूँकि पंजाब में बीजेपी के पास दिल्ली या पश्चिम बंगाल की तरह लोकल कैडर नहीं है,

इसलिए अब पंजाब में बीजेपी जेलों में बंद और पोषित माफ़ियाओं का सहारा लेगी, लोकल लेवल के दंगे-फ़साद के लिए।

और जब चुनाव नज़दीक होगा, तब बड़े पैमाने पर अधिकारियों और पुलिसवालों का ट्रांसफ़र होगा, अलग अलग राज्यों से “ऑब्ज़र्वर” आयेंगे,

ताकि पंजाब में भी बीजेपी जनादेश लूट सके…

ख़ैर, बीजेपी की स्क्रिप्ट तो बिल्कुल साफ़ है, पर पंजाब का इतिहास रहा है, कि वो किसी और की बनाई स्क्रिप्ट पर नहीं चलते!

इसलिए, जो बोले, सो निहाल...

[AAP ka Yadwinder. AK4PM✌️✌️ @Yadwind44686397]

@ArvindKejriwal मंत्री @SanjeevArora_PB जी का “जुर्म” सिर्फ इतना था कि वे पंजाब में ₹60,000 करोड़ का निवेश लाकर उद्योग और रोजगार बढ़ाने पर काम कर रहे थे।

लेकिन BJP को पंजाब की तरक्की रास नहीं आई, इसलिए उन्हें फर्ज़ी मुकदमों में गिरफ़्तार कर लिया गया।

[Arvind Kejriwal @ArvindKejriwal]

किसी भी इंसान का चरित्र मुसीबत के समय पता चलता है।

संजीव अरोड़ा ने बीजेपी में जाने की बजाय जेल जाना पसंद किया। उन्हें सलाम।

[प्रणव @PranavaBhardwaj]

She is Priya Bhardwaj from Hoshiyarpur Punjab. Her father died in 2024.

She has cleared JEE this year because of the free coaching @BhagwantMann ‘s government provides in government schools of Punjab.

As a Bhardwaj myself, i am proud of her but also know that her family like mine would be voting for Modi and BJP.

But that does not stop @ArvindKejriwal and @AamAadmiParty to help Bhardwajs getting to places if life is cruel with them.

It is time for Brahmins to think that what are you standing for.? Our ancestors died educating people, but we are not even supporting those who are talking of education.

It is a collective shame on our IQ if a political force blinds us with hate every time.

Modi got UGC for your kids, Kejriwal is getting IITs seat. And all you return is hate.

[Vikas Singh @vikasbanglore]

Newly built sarjapur road is now digged up by GGL (I believe) and just left like that. @osd_cmkarnataka @BECCUPDATES How can they do like this? I waited one week before posting this. @CivicOp_india @arivuexpress @ChristinMP_ can't we file police case against them? @kiranshaw

[Nagrik 🇮🇳 @indian_nagrik]

This is the full submission of @ArvindKejriwal for his recusal application.

He lists 10 brilliant point.

This is masterclass in how to argue your own case in court and even the judge got impressed.

This is peak Cinema and Peak Legal detailing!

[Sanjeev Jha @Sanjeev_aap]

आज @ArvindKejriwal जी दिल्ली उच्च न्यायालय में ......

[Shivam Singh @PoeticShivam]

Unbelievable.. Unprecedented.. Unmatched..

Make no mistake, what Arvind Kejriwal did in High Court is not ordinary. The day will be marked as a defining moment in Indian democracy. His arguments will be remembered and recalled whenever recusals and fairness of judges will be in question.

AAP is not a party that has habitually complained about fairness of the judiciary. The respect and belief has always been there. There are strong reasons behind this recusal application.

When Arvind Kejriwal argued his case in front of Justice Swarna Kanta Sharma, he maintained calm. He was absolutely professional about it. The strongest of apprehensions were presented with carefully selected words. Not once he spoke in a way that was disrespectful to judiciary.. such clarity and understanding of discipline of a court room from a politician who has never practiced law was outstanding.

He has now set a template for others to follow who may fear that the judge may not be fair to them. This man continues to be a revolutionary.

It’s important to discuss the arguments he made today to understand the significance of what he has achieved irrespective of the judgement that is to follow.

1. On 9th March when CBI approached High Court, justice Swarna Kanta was quick to call the session court’s discharge order as erroneous without even hearing the other side. In fact, the other side was not even present in court. How can a judge make such strong observations on a discharge order that came after months of countless hearings in the lower court? The other party, here Arvind Kejriwal has all the right to feel apprehensive. 

2. The sessions court had ordered an enquiry against the investigating officer and with strong statements attached. In fact, the court called the investigation pre-determined, which means that the IO was certain who he wanted to implicate. The proceedings against this IO were stayed despite the IO not being present in the court or even requesting for a stay. What was the hurry to give relief to the IO that all procedures had to be brushed aside? 

3. Justice Swarna Kanta Sharma when rejecting bail applications of the accused in the past, made strong observations that allowed news channels to pick headlines to openly call the accused guilty. Typically when hearing a bail application, a judge simply accepts or rejects the bail. What was the need to make adverse observations without a trial?

4. The Supreme Court set aside Justice Swarna Kanta’s orders in all these bail applications.. no exceptions. Perhaps Swarna Kanta ji could be wrong about one or two applications but all her orders being set aside raises serious questions.

5. Justice Swarna Kanta’s son and daughter are empaneled by the BJP government. How can Arvind Kejriwal or any accused expect from the judge here to be fair when her kin are working for their political rivals?

6. It’s probably okay for a judge to attend events related to any ideology but Justice Swarna Kanta Sharma attended 4 events of Adhivakta Parishad, a body of the RSS. She never attended events organized by groups belonging to any other ideology. How can Arvind Kejriwal expect a fair judgement from a judge who has been exclusively attending RSS events?

I have discussed just a handful of arguments from those that Arvind Kejriwal presented today. He stood in front of the same judge he wanted recused. It was an awkward situation to say the least but the manner in which he presented his case today left many in awe. 

Today, he walked out of the court winning many more admirers. His presence along with his arguments have changed a lot of things in India today. I can’t yet pin point but everybody who understands judiciary can feel it in the air. 

I recall somebody famously once said.. finally it took Arvind Kejriwal to fix PMLA. I feel a similar statement but on the present subject is on the way after his brilliance today. 

This man is made up of some hard steel. Salute.

कैसे @ArvindKejriwal के vision से @BhagwantMann सरकार वो सब कर रहीं हैं जिससे पंजाब को ड्रग्स से बचाया जा सकता है
जहां और सरकारें journalist को ही अरेस्ट कर लेती या केस कर देते

वहां पंजाब सरकार ने एक्शन लेके दिखाया , मदद मांगने में भी हिचकिचाए नहीं .
शाबाश पंजाब सरकार .

[Shivam Singh @PoeticShivam]

Arvind Kejriwal has pulled the unthinkable in Punjab.

Punjab was once trapped in cobwebs of drugs, industries were leaving Punjab, employment was scarce and every single system was corrupt.

The same Punjab today drew industrialists like Jindals and Mittals at investors summit, alongside countless other business leaders of small, medium and largescale industries.

Arvind Kejriwal in his address rightly pointed out that to fix Punjab, the Bhagwant Mann government first fixed healthcare and education. They cracked down on drugs and strengthened the youth,

it's a result of these industries are coming back to Punjab. There is an air of positivity and the support from AAP government is more than palpable.

What startles most is the time they took. It took @ArvindKejriwal and his team just under 4 years to weave their magic and transform Punjab -decades of neglect and exploitation, fixed in 4 years!

Only India's fastest growing political startup, the Aam Aadmi Party could have pulled this. Bravo!

[Yash Lahoti @YvLahoti]

Sitting in India right now, watching the world burn in real time. US & Israel striking Iran. Iran retaliating across the Gulf. Russia-Ukraine still raging. Pakistan-Afghanistan tensions simmering.

Missiles flying over Tehran, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Qatar.
And here I am, safe at home on a Saturday evening, in a democratic, peaceful country, worrying about none of this at my doorstep.

We don't say this enough - we are incredibly lucky. Not perfect, not without problems. But at peace. That's not a small thing in 2026.

Dear @DKShivakumar,

Beyond Cubbon Park and Lalbagh, Bengaluru hasn’t seen a single large, visionary public green park initiative since Independence.

Today, the city is rapidly turning into a concrete jungle - thousands of acres are routinely allocated to malls, layouts, and commercial developments.

For once, could we prioritise people over concrete? Please consider launching a landmark green public space for Bengaluru - something the city can truly be proud of.

A park of this scale would serve generations of men, women, and children and become a lasting legacy of thoughtful governance. We will be indebted to you 🙏

[Prateek Tambi @howler]

@FixingBengaluru @prasannavishy I see quality of work is definitely better. Although I do feel it came after a lot of backlash on social media. Hope the momemtum continues.

@Dhimahi11 Saying as more than 40y/o.
In this noisy world where attention seeking is most important parameter of success, the power and fulfilment that silence creates are unknown to us. Sure its mostly someone who lost purpose. But then all about silence is supposed to be silent by design
