Why is such a thing happening? Because businessmen have paid money to media and TV channels to promote Modi."

Kejriwal went further to say: "800 farmers committed suicide in Guajrat in the last 10 years, but the media never reported this.

Adani was sold land at the rate of Rs 1, but no TV channel revealed this. But these same TV channels will go on showing how Arvind (Kejriwal) has taken Z category, Y category security. To hell with my security. These media people will not reveal the truth about Modi".

Kejriwal then went on to threaten the media by saying: "This time, the entire media has sold itself. It is a big conspiracy.

If we ever form our government, we will probe this and everybody, including the media, would be sent to jail."
