Kejriwal urges Modi to do positive politics
New Delhi, June 11 : Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to do positive politics as people do not appreciate of negative politics.
"The CBI is calling and abusing our officials. They are called for questioning and were being made to sit for hours," Kejriwal said.
He accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Lt Governor of using the Central Bureau of Investigation and Anti-Corruption Branch (ACB) against the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
"The CBI is reporting to (BJP President Amit) Shah and Modi," the Chief Minister alleged.
"lnstead of working on earlier cases, we are being dragged in newer ones. There are 14 cases already with the ACB and CBI. We want to see the status of these cases.
"They are conducting raids in my house and also in the houses of my other ministers. They are not able to arrest us as they know we are honest. All this is done to defame us.
"The main intention is to stop our work," Kejriwal said.
"The Prime Minister is like a father figure to the nation. He should protect the people, not create troubles. If we are trying to open 1,000 Mohalla clinics in Delhi, he should open 10,000 throughout the country. People will be happy and will praise him," the Chief Minister added.

BJP MLC kept under 'digital arrest' for 90 minutes in UP's Sultanpur; case lodged
Sultanpur (UP) (PTI): A case was registered after BJP MLC Shailendra Singh was allegedly kept under "digital arrest" for about one-and-a-half hours here, police said on Thursday.
In his complaint, the member of legislative council (MLC) said he received a phone call from an unknown number on March 2, where the caller claimed to be an officer with the Mumbai Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) and alleged that Singh's bank account was being used for money laundering and other suspicious activities.
Singh reported that the caller told him that he had an account in Canara Bank.

"I told them that I do not have any bank account outside Lucknow and Sultanpur. They kept me engaged on a video call for about one-and-a-half hours and asked me to lock myself inside a room and not speak to anyone," Singh said.
He alleged that the callers repeatedly sought details related to his Aadhaar card and bank accounts.
According to Singh, some of his associates grew suspicious and checked the phone number, and found that it was not linked to the Mumbai ATS but was registered in the name of a woman from Madhya Pradesh's Satna.
The callers allegedly disconnected the call when they sensed that their identity might be exposed.
Singh later lodged a complaint at the cyber police station in Sultanpur.
Cyber police station in-charge Akhanddev Mishra confirmed the incident and said the fraudsters had attempted to put the MLC under "digital arrest".
He said the police are tracking the phone numbers and IP addresses from which the calls were made.
