Arvind Kejriwal has claimed that if the BJP forms the next government at the Centre, Narendra Modi will become prime minister of the country forever.

He said if the BJP comes to power in 2019, there will be no election thereafter.

While making the allegations, Kejriwal appealed to the people to ensure the defeat of the saffron party.

NEW DELHI: Escalating his attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday urged the country to vote out the BJP in the coming Lok Sabha elections, beginning April 11, claiming that if the BJP forms the next government at the Centre, Modi will remain at the top post of the country forever as there will be no election after the 2019 polls. "Today, every patriot should have only one motive to stop the Modi government from coming back to power again at any cost... if they (BJP) come to power in 2019, he (Modi) will be the prime minister forever," PTI quoted Kejriwal as saying. If Modi becomes the prime minister again there will be no election in the country, warned Kejriwal. Virtually seeking to stoke fears of an impending end of democracy in the country, Kejriwal alleged that the Modi government is "following" German dictator "Adolf Hitler's tactics" to run the country. He was speaking at a function to unveil a book "Vada Faramoshi", a compilation of replies under the Right to Information Act to queries on the Central government's works.  The book was written by Neeraj Kumar, Sanjoy Basu and Shashi Shekhar. The chief minister made the claim referring to the recent incident involving a "brutal" attack on the members of Muslim family in Gurgaon, and said the people from minority community were being "beaten up, harassed and murdered today without any fault". "Today, anyone who questions the Modi government is labelled an 'anti-national'," he added. Earlier on Saturday, Kejriwal tweeted: "Hitler bhi satta ke liye yahi karta tha. Hitler ke gunde logo to pitte the, unka khoon karte the aur police jinhe mara, unhi ke khilaaf case karti thi (Hitler also used to do this for power. Hitler's goons used to beat up people, kill them, and police registered cases against those who were assaulted)." "Modiji bhi satta ke liye yahi karwa rahein hai, Hitler ke raaste chal rahe hai. Par Modi samrthako ko dikhai nahi deta hai ki hamara bharat kidhar ja raha hai. (Modiji is also doing this for power, he is walking on the path of Hitler. But Modi supporters are not able to see where our country is going)." In another tweet, Kejriwal asked in which Hindu religious book is it written to attack Muslims. He said that these people are not Hindus but they are goons and their party is made up of hooligans. It is the duty of every Indian to save both the country and the Hindu religion, he said. The seven Lok Sabha seats in Delhi will go to polls on May 12.
