"We want that the students get good education from class 1 onwards."
BJP has slammed all those who are supporting Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to oppose the central ordinance on control over administrative services in the national capital will be seen by the people as the “corrupt standing in favour of corruption.”
The BJP’s reaction came after CPI (M) general secretary Sitaram Yechury assured his party’s support to Arvind Kejriwal on the issue.
Union minister Meenakshi Lekhi said the ordinance has been brought to ensure action is taken against those involved in corruption and “make Delhi and India corruption-free.”
Hitting out to those in support of the Delhi CM, the BJP leader said, “All those who are standing against the ordinance will be seen by the people as the corrupt who are standing in favour of corruption.”
“To those who are meeting (Kejriwal), I want to tell them from my side that you should come in his favour if you are corrupt. History will record your deposition…,” she added.
The development comes after Delhi Chief Minister and AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal met Yechury at the CPI(M) office.
Arvind Kejriwal has been meeting leaders of opposition parties to rally support on the issue.

Taking notes from the issue, several leaders including Bihar Chief Minister and JD (U) leader Nitish Kumar, his deputy and RJD leader Tejaswi Yadav, Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, Shiv Sena (UBT) chief leader Uddhav Thackeray, NCP chief Sharad Pawar and West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee have expressed solidarity with AAP on the matter.
Earlier this morning, while accusing the BJP-led Centre of attacking federalism, Mr Yechury condemned the central ordinance and extended his party’s support to the AAP in opposing it in Parliament when a bill will be brought to replace it.
He also appealed to the Congress and other opposition parties to support the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on the issue, saying promulgation of the ordinance on administrative services in Delhi is a “brazen violation” of the Constitution and this can happen with the government of any non-BJP party.
