In a strongly-worded post on X, Maliwal condemned Kejriwal for what she described as crossing “all limits of shamelessness” by expressing support for Bibhav Kumar.
Kumar was arrested for allegedly assaulting Maliwal at Kejriwal’s official residence on May 13. After spending over 100 days in judicial custody, he was subsequently granted bail by the Supreme Court.
“You have crossed all limits of shamelessness. @ArvindKejriwal Sir, the goon who attacked me in your presence at your residence, while he was in jail, you hired the country’s most expensive army of lawyers to save him, got PC (press conference) after PC done against me,” Maliwal wrote.
“Even the Supreme Court said that who keeps such goons in their residence. If these statements of theirs do not boost the spirits of goons like Bibhav, then what else will? The message is clear – even if you fight again, we will save you,” she added.
“Today, when he is out on bail, he is being called the biggest leader of the party and they are saying that he has been put in jail in a fake case,” she said.
Maliwal’s outburst followed Kejriwal’s address to the Delhi Assembly on Thursday, during which he defended Kumar and other party leaders entangled in legal issues, claiming they were falsely implicated in “fake cases.”
“They filed a fake case against me, put Manish Sisodia, Satyendar Jain, Sanjay Singh, Vibhav, Vijay Nair in jail. Even after putting five big leaders in jail, our party is standing strong today,” Kejriwal said, challenging opposition parties to withstand similar pressure.
Maliwal accused Kejriwal of failing to stand up for women within his party, saying, “If someone cannot take a stand for his party’s female MP, how will he take a stand for the women of Delhi?”
“Not every person who is a partner in all your wrongdoings is a great leader. You have a hobby of keeping people who say “Wah Sir, Wah Sir” around you, that is why the world has started looking blurry. Every other day you compare yourself with Maryada Purushottam Ram!”
Kejriwal served as the Chief Minister of Delhi for nearly a decade before resigning amid escalating pressure on the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) regarding corruption allegations linked to a liquor distribution scheme. His resignation came after more than a year of scrutiny, during which several AAP leaders, including former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, were held without trial for months in connection with the case.
