Parties after him to contest Lok Sabha polls because he is Modi's critic: Prakash Raj

IndiaTimes Sunday, 14 January 2024
Actor Prakash Raj has claimed that "three political parties" are after him to be their candidate for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls not for his ideology but because he is a critic of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. "I don't want to get into the trap," the 58-year-old said at the Kerala Literature Festival (KLF) here. The award winning actor is known for his work in films such as "Kanchivaram", "Singham" and "Wanted". He had contested as an Independent candidate from Bengaluru Central in the 2019 general elections unsuccessfully.

Shah dismissed Kejriwal's notion that he would succeed Modi, reaffirming Modi's leadership continuity. Shah also challenged Kejriwal's confidence, highlighting that interim bail doesn't absolve him from legal issues, including the liquor policy case involving Manish Sisodia. #AmitShah #AmitShahPMModiRetirement #BJPConstitution #ModiWillRetire #KejriwalViralVideo #KejriwalPressConference #PMModiRetire #ModiRetirement #AAP #BJP #LSPolls2024 #ArvindKejriwalBail #Delhi #ArvindKejriwal #Connaught Place #AAPnews #AamAadmiParty #Punjab #LokSabhaElections #LokSabhanews #Kejriwalnews #Oneinda #Oneindianews ~PR.152~ED.194~GR.125~HT.96~

"अगला नंबर योगी का...": Kejriwal Breaks Silence Over Arrest In His First Campaign Speech | AAP

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, recently granted bail in the Delhi excise policy case, launched a scathing attack on the BJP-led central government. He accused the government of attempting to crush his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) by targeting its top leaders for arrest. Speaking at the AAP headquarters in Delhi, Kejriwal warned that if the BJP returned to power, all opposition leaders would face imprisonment. Despite his time in jail, Kejriwal explained that he did not resign from his post as he believes in fighting against authoritarianism and upholding democracy. He also expressed his determination to continue the battle for democracy, stating that even other leaders like Hemant Soren shouldn't have resigned. Kejriwal's remarks come amid escalating political tensions ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, where he predicts the BJP will secure around 220 seats. #KejriwalPressConference #AAP #BJP #LSPolls2024 #ArvindKejriwalBail #Delhi #ArvindKejriwal #HanumanTemple #ConnaughPlace #AAPnews #AamAadmiParty #Punjab #LokSabhaElections #LokSabhanews #Kejriwalnews #Oneinda #Oneindianews ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.102~
