Kejriwal files nomination after attacking Modi and Rahul

Varanasi: AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal Wednesday filed his nomination for the Lok Sabha election from here to take on BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi after a roadshow that drew thousands in the Hindu holy

"Look at all these hoardings... Where do they get their money?" he asked looking at one giant Modi hoarding in Varanasi. "And here I have only 500 rupees with me!"

Kejriwal said while he was undertaking a simple election campaign, Modi would fly into Varanasi Thursday by helicopter to file his nomination.

"The people of Kashi (Varanasi) should also not get fooled like people in Amethi have been fooled for years," he thundered as his vehicle crawled through parts of the congested city. Rahul Gandhi is seeking re-election from Amethi constituency.

He said Modi had spent some Rs.5,000 crore and Rahul Gandhi Rs.1,000 crore on advertisements -- on themselves and their parties.

He said Varanasi should elect an MP with whom they can relate.

"This time people have to end the politics of corporates and establish a government of the people. We are on the path of truth, that is why god is with us," he said.
