Digvijay Singh compares Kejriwal to Hitler

Arvind Kejriwal is a "self-serving ambitious megalomaniac having "streak" of Hitler, Congress general secretary Digvijay Singh alleged today in the sharpest attack on the activist.

Seeking to turn the table on Kejriwal, the Congress leader said he would also be asking him questions tomorrow and he asked Kejriwal whether he would dismiss the "uncomfortable" questions asked to them by him like the RSS, Anna Hazare and Ramdev .

In a letter to Kejriwal, Singh said "when YP Singh (Retd IPS), your former colleague in civil society movement, called you a Hitler, I could see the streak in you.

"My opinion about you of a well-meaning crusader of public issues has now changed to a self-serving ambitious megalomaniac with scant regard for democracy," he said.

Digvijay Singh claimed Kejriwal couldn't get along with Aruna Roy, who was "your guru in RTI movement. Then you parted ways with Kiran Bedi and now, also with Anna whom you used as a front to give your ambitions a touch of respectability".

He claimed Kejriwal wanted him to recommend his name for being made a member of the National Advisory Council.

"You wanted to meet her (Sonia Gandhi) and had requested me to propose your name for inclusion in the NAC. I did propose your name but failed. She took Aruna Roy," Singh said.

He also said Kejriwal had first met him during a seminar at Berkeley University in San Francisco and that the Congress leader was quite impressed by his commitment.

Mr. Digvijay Singh should know about dictators for the first person in India who had dictatorial tendencies was Indira Gandhi who promulgated THE EMERGENCY in 1975 with the collusion of Siddhartha Shankar Ray.

The whole of the Congress party looked on impotently.

Further, the way the Congress party is targeting persons raising questions on the Congress method of corruption based politics are being hounded by the CBI,ED and Income tax department, shows who is the dictator.

The way, Kejriwal has instituted an enquiry against his own people against whom corruption charges have been raised shows that he is no Hitler, he is fair.

A more appropriate title for him would be Lee Kuan Yew, the ex Singapore prime minister who is credited of making Singapore what it is today.

I just hope he develops into Lee.
