Arvind Kejriwal calls Satender Jain, AAP Minister accused in Money Laundering Case, a ‘Patriot’

Satender Jain, the Health Minister from Delhi who has been booked by the ED in a Money Laundering Case has been defended by the Party Chief and Delhi Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal. He called Satender Jain a patriot and said that he’d never indulge in any such thing. He said, “Satyendar Jain is a patriot. The country should be proud of him, he gave the Mohalla clinic to Delhi. People from across the world have come to see it. He should be given Padma Vibhushan. Let everyone enquire into him, CBI has already cleared him, ED will as well.”

On the matter, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia quoted, "A fake case is being run against Satyendra Jain for 8 years. Till now, ED has summoned him many times. After a while, the ED stopped calling him for many years, since they did not have anything against him. Now, they have started again because Satyendra Jain is the election in charge of Himachal Pradesh."

Minister of Women and Child Development in the Union Cabinet Smriti Irani called out Arvind Kejriwal and said, “Kejriwal Ji, is it true that Satyendar Jain himself declared under Income Disclosures 2016 that he indulged in money laundering of Rs 16.39 crores? Ankush Jain and Vaibhav Jain became the channels for it.”
