arvind kejriwal press conference
“Today’s press conference is about how BJP and Delhi LG are playing with the life of Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and conspiring to kill him in jail,” said AAP MP Sanjay Singh during a press conference held here.
“The way they represent the health of Arvind Kejriwal, a medical report he has received and all this explains why anything might occur any time inside prison,” stressed an AAP leader.
Delhi LG was accused by AAP on Saturday for allegedly saying that he was doing ‘deliberate’ harm to himself. They said that the plan of BJP was to get rid of him from power.

Saxena expressed concern about Kejriwal’s “non-consumption” of his prescribed medical food and medications while he is in Tihar jail under judicial custody in a letter sent on Friday from the LG’s office to the chief secretary. He gave the officers orders to look into why this was happening.
The communication quoted from an assessment of health by Tihar Jail Superintendent which revealed acts of “willful low-calorie intake” by chief minister despite being provided with sufficient home-made meals. In addition, it mentioned that on July 7, before dinner, he refused insulin.
arvind kejriwal lost weight and blood sugar levels reduced
According to Aam Aadmi Party, Kejriwal lost weight and blood sugar levels reduced when he was in prison where his party alleges that BJP and Central Government wanted to destroy his health. The party also said that Kejriwal had a blood sugar drop of 50 mg/dL five times in a single night which put in danger of slipping into coma or even causing brain injury.
On July 13, Sanjay Singh asserted that Arvind Kejriwal’s 8.5 kg weight loss while incarcerated was indicative of a “serious illness.” He had stated, “Since his arrest, the Chief Minister has reduced his weight from 70 to 61.5 kg.”
Anything could happen to him at any time in the jail as his medical report indicates and how Delhi LG and BJP are giving wrong statements on Arvind Kejriwal’s health is proof enough;” Singh added.
A communication from the LG’s office to the chief secretary on Friday said that Saxena expressed concern over the “non-consumption” of prescribed medical diet and medicines by Kejriwal.
arvind kejriwal willful low-calorie intake
The communication, citing a report by Tihar Jail’s Superintendent (Prison) regarding the health status of Kejriwal, noted that it brings out the fact that there are several instances of “willful low-calorie intake” by the chief minister, despite sufficient home-cooked food being provided to him.
Arvind Kejriwal was apprehended by the Enforcement Directorate over excise policy case. He has been given bail in this matter by a court of law in the prior month. But after this arrest he was arrested by the CBI. Consequently, Supreme Court gave him interim bail for ED’s case.
CBI’s case is still keeping him behind bars.
“Kejriwal fell asleep with his sugar levels below fifty,” said Arvind Kejriwal’s advocate to the Delhi high court.
Trying to kill the Chief Minister of Arvind Kejriwal, the BJP and Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena are being pursued for advice and assistance by Aam Aadmi Party in filing a case of attempt to murder against them. They have alleged that the health of the imprisoned Chief Minister is at stake.
In a press conference held yesterday, Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh of AAP claimed that there are efforts to kill CM inside Tihar Jail by hiding his medical reports.
“Regarding CM’s health both BJP and its L-G kept on giving false information, before when his sugar level went up they said Kejriwal was eating mangoes, aloo puri… was increasing calories refused insulin. Then he had to get insulin because Court intervened. Now they say Kejriwal is not eating anything so his sugar level dropped last night… Who doesn’t know he is diabetic will want not eat? Don’t you think he knows he has diabetes?” Singh asked rhetorically

On Saturday, L-G Saxena wrote to Chief Secretary Naresh Kumar expressing concern about Kejriwal’s “non-consumption of prescribed medical diet and medications” in jail. He asked the CS to ascertain the reasons for this from the CM since deviations “could have medical and legal ramifications”.
“The prison authorities may advise Hon’ble Chief Minister to strictly adhere to prescription levels of medication as well as diet recommended by dieticians,” Saxena highlighted type-ll diabetes mellitus history associated with Kejriwal hence need for “stricter protocols for monitoring blood sugar levels”.

“I have here these medical reports (shows document) which were prepared by doctors at Tihar Jail who have taken readings of (Kejriwal)’s blood sugar levels in graphical forms indicating that it has come down suggesting hyperglycemia,” showed Singh.
Why do L-G and BJP spread false information about Kejriwal’s health? “I want to ask why L-G is denying this again and again. He is scheming against him by doing so. What happens to him he will answer. We are speaking with some lawyers on the efforts of killing case that will be instituted against them later…. After consulting lawyers, we will soon file a case of attempt to murder against the L-G and the BJP under Section 307 (of the Indian Penal Code pertaining to attempt to murder) because hiding a patient/person’s medical reports is a conspiracy to harm the person,” he said.
