“Please Let Me Speak For Five Minutes,” Modi, Modi’ Slogans Interrupt Kejriwal’s Speech At The IP University Campus Launch

Chants of “Modi, Modi” were heard during Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s speech at the opening of the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University’s East Delhi campus on Thursday. The ruling AAP has accused the BJP of causing a disturbance at the occasion.

The chief minister responded to those who interrupted him by saying that if the school system could be improved through “such slogan” yelling, it would have done it in the previous 70 years.

During his address, Kejriwal was speaking about the Delhi government’s school education model when a section of the audience started chanting “Modi, Modi” slogans.

“Please let me speak for five minutes. I urge people from this party and the other party to let me speak,” he said.

“I know you might not like my ideas and thoughts. You can make comments but this is not right. Everyone has the right to speak in this democracy,” he said on being interrupted again.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) claimed that BJP supporters raised a “ruckus” throughout the performance, but Kejriwal effectively put an end to their claims with his astute response.

While the inauguration ceremony was taking place, BJP and AAP supporters were yelling slogans outside the university.

The east Delhi campus of the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University has been the most recent area of contention between the AAP-led city government and Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena. Both sides have stated that they will officially open the campus.

Each side has accused the other of attempting to claim excessive credit for the new campus.
