Arvind Kejriwal hits back at CEC Rajiv Kumar over ‘poisoning Yamuna’ remark notice: ‘He can contest Delhi election’

Arvind Kejriwal of the Aam Aadmi Party on Thursday accused Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar of “destroying” the credibility of the Election Commission of India and alleged that he was indulging in politics by issuing a notice over his claim that the Haryana government was “mixing poison” in the Yamuna river.

Addressing a press conference, Arvind Kejriwal claimed that Rajiv Kumar was eyeing a post-retirement role. “No one has damaged the Election Commission the way Rajiv Kumar has done. If he wants, he can contest elections from any of the Delhi assembly seats,” the former chief minister said.
