Kejriwal's ex-minister questioned today: Delhi Police reached home with summons

Former Delhi government minister Rajendra Pal Gautam has been summoned by the police for questioning. He has been asked to appear today at 2 pm. He is accused of administering the oath of disobeying Hindu deities at a Buddhist convention in Delhi on the day of Vijayadashami. BJP MP Manoj Tiwari demanded the dismissal of the minister by sharing the video.
On Sunday itself, Gautam resigned from the post of minister. Gautam had refused to receive any notice on Monday. He was summoned by the police today. Gautam had said on Monday, 'He has not received any notice. The police came to interrogate me, I gave the requested information.
Rajendra Pal Gautam is a Dalit leader of Aam Aadmi Party. He is an MLA from the Seemapuri seat of Delhi. In the Kejriwal government, he had the responsibility of the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, Scheduled Castes / Tribes, and Registrar of Co-operative Societies. Responding to his resignation, he said on Sunday – I will continue to fight against the BJP. They were targeting Kejriwal in my name. I will not let my leader come under fire.
This initiation program was done by Jai Bhim Mission, in which more than 10 thousand people came. BJP MP Manoj Tiwari alleged that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) had converted poor Hindus by giving them free goods. AAP has become a religious conversion agency.
After the video went viral, Minister Rajendra Gautam said, 'BJP is a traitor. If I believe in Buddhism, what is wrong with it? If BJP has to complain, it should do so. The Constitution of India gives us the freedom to follow any religion. BJP's ground is slipping and it is afraid of Aam Aadmi Party.
