Q: Arvind Kejriwal was your junior in IRS. How do you look at his evolution in national politics?Udit Raj: His evolution was mainly through Anna movement. And then he had support of foreign forces. Media support was huge. Even during counting, AAP was shown as a major party along with Congress and BJP. All other parties like BSP, RJD were shown as part of others. What is this? Is it not partiality of media? He is basically a media creation. If media stops showing him, he'll be nowhere.
When he was in IT dept, he did nothing. You know, files speak. If you check files, you'll get to know how effective he was.
And as a CM, he was also ineffective. He could not deliver. He had said he'll hold Janata darbar but he could not hold even one Janata Darbar. He was such an ineffective CM that within 15 days time, people started agitation against him. He is basically a media creation. He is a very clever person. He has manipulated very well and taken advantage from every corner.
Q: Are you saying that he was a failure as an IRS officer?
Udit Raj: He was a complete failure. My files are there, his files are there. I bet, I challenge him. Just look at what he has done to the nation, what he has done to the nation. He has not done anything.
Q: Don't you think he has offered a platform to those who are fighting against corruption?Udit Raj: Then why he couldn't fight corruption in the department? At least, he could have initiated things. In fact, after forming an organization in 2005, he was awarded Magsaysay award within a span of 1 year. What great work did he do? That means foreign forces were behind him. They obliged him, they wanted to project him. They projected him so that he could create anarchy and chaos in the country.
