PM Modi hasn't said anything about retiring after 75: Kejriwal

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has not said anything about retiring from politics after turning 75 and alleged that opposition leaders are being sent to jail under the idea of "one leader, one nation".

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader had on Saturday said Modi will retire in accordance with the rules made by him on attaining 75 years of age in September 2025.

Brushing aside Kejriwal's remarks, Union minister Amit Shah told a press conference in Hyderabad on Saturday that Modi will continue to lead the country and there is "no confusion in the BJP" about it.

Kejriwal said while many Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders have come out in his support, Modi has not said anything on retiring from politics after turning 75.

"It is clear from this that he will not stop the rules made by him from being implemented on himself. Whenever any big leader is talked about, those in the party speak in his favour. But if what BJP leaders say is true, then Modiji himself should say that the rule by which (L K) Advaniji retired does not apply to him.

"A lthough I do not think Modiji will do this. It is clear that he will retire. Just tell us who will be his successor?" the AAP leader said. (PTI)
