Harbhajan Singh Dhath, a close relative of Bhagat Singh, responded to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's statement on Bhagat Singh. Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal had compared Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia and former Delhi Minister Satyendar Jain to Bhagat Singh on October 17. While Sisodia is under investigation for the Delhi excise policy case, Jain is in jail for an alleged money laundering case. Harbhajan Singh Dhath said, “It was never his (Bhagat Singh's) mission to be elected to power or else he could have survived & not been hanged... They should concentrate on the condition Punjab is in today.” “Why are criminals caught in corruption cases being compared with martyrs? What political mileage did he want from it? Whatever your fight is, fight it politically,” he further added.
