In the biggest political showdown since he took over, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of ordering a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) raid on his office against his principal secretary Rajendra Kumar.
He even tweeted calling the PM “a coward and a psychopath”. Ouch. That didn’t go down well with the hashtag #YoAAPSoCongress , which was the top most trend on Twitter. But AAP followers weren’t far behind with their own hashtag #CowardModi . Even #ModiFearsKejriwal is following close behind.
Here’s what the Delhi CM tweeted
CBI raids my office
— Arvind Kejriwal (@ArvindKejriwal) December 15, 2015 When Modi cudn’t handle me politically, he resorts to this cowardice
— Arvind Kejriwal (@ArvindKejriwal) December 15, 2015 Modi is a coward and a psycopath
— Arvind Kejriwal (@ArvindKejriwal) December 15, 2015 The BJP’s supporters came out all guns blazing and with criticism over the language used by the CM.
Y r @AamAadmiParty getting hyper?? Khud ko Transparent bolte ho to chup chap investigation mein help karo. @ArvindKejriwal #YoAapSoCongress
— Ayush Singh (@asli_ayush) December 15, 2015 If you are so “IMANDAAR”, and nothing to hide then what’s the need to fear? #DalMeKuchKalaHai #YoAapSoCongress https://t.co/A8y2j9DmHU

— Abhijeet J. (@DarrKeAage) December 15, 2015 But there was support from the likely quarters – AAP loyalists.
Rajendar Kumar is one of the most honest & brave officers & backbone of Kejriwal Govt. This is an attack on Honesty. #CowardModi
— Durgesh Pathak (@ipathak25) December 15, 2015 No one can break AK by any CBI raid ,He is a very strong man by heart. He can overcome all hurdles.
— Pritha (@tweetingpritha) December 15, 2015 Now #CowardModi will use CBI to harass and impede the working of honest officers. Totally unacceptable.
— Aam Aadmi Party- AAP (@AamAadmiParty) December 15, 2015 For the time being Modi is silent, not that that is stopping Kejriwal from keeping the accusations coming.
FM lied in Parliament. My own office files are being looked into to get some evidence against me. Rajender is an excuse
