Former Delhi Chief Minister of Delhi and Aam Aadmi Party convener, Arvind Kejriwal, said, on 24 February, that communalism is a bigger problem in the country than corruption. Addressing a gathering comprising Muslim academics and intelligentsia at the India Islamic Cultural Centre in the national capital, Kejriwal and other AAP leaders targeted the “communal” politics of the Gujarat chief minister, Narendra Modi. But, Kejriwal preferred to remain silent on the question if he would contest against Modi in coming parliamentary elections. “There is no certainty yet whether Modi is fighting elections or not. Traditionally, Congress and BJP have never fielded strong candidates against each other’s top leaders. We bucked that trend for the first time by giving a tough fight to Sheila Dikshit. Even now we have fielded Kumar Vishwas who is a very senior AAP leader against Rahul Gandhi,” he stated.
