Saurabh Bharadwaj met the CM on Wednesday. Archive

AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh on Wednesday alleged that the Tihar jail administration has cancelled the meeting of Education Minister Atishi with Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in jail. A senior jail official said that AAP leaders Saurabh Bharadwaj and Atishi were given different dates to meet the CM in jail.

While Bharadwaj was scheduled to meet the CM on Wednesday, Atishi was supposed to meet him on April 29. This is why only Bharadwaj was allowed the meeting today (Wednesday), the official said, adding: "Health and Education Ministers, Saurabh Bharadwaj and Atishi, had to meet the CM today, but yesterday, Atishi's meeting was not cancelled at the last minute… She applied for permission after all the rules…"

Singh said: "Today you are cancelling the CM's meeting with… Minister of Education… You have already cancelled my meeting with him… Tomorrow, you will bar him from meeting his wife… This was not even in British rule… If this is not dictatorship, then what is it?" Targeting the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said: "Earlier, we had to fight for insulin…why do we have to move court for everything? Why is Kejriwal being treated like a terrorist? A deep conspiracy is being hatched to kill the CM…" He said he would write a letter to the PM and the L-G on Thursday.

Meanwhile, after meeting the CM, Bharadwaj said: "I was able to have a discussion with him for about half an hour… he was sitting on the other side of the glass in a window, and I was sitting on the opposite side… He emphasised that Delhiites should not worry about him…"
