Sunita Kejriwal accused the BJP-led central government of aiming to keep her husband, Arvind Kejriwal, in jail during the Lok Sabha elections. She questioned the reasons behind his arrest and asserted that the people of the country would react strongly to such tactics.
Hardip Singh Puri, a BJP leader and Union Minister, made a sarcastic comparison between Sunita Kejriwal and Rabri Devi, suggesting a potential increase in her political role.
