'When Amit Shah Was Gujarat Minister...': Kejriwal On Satyendar Jain's 'Massage' Video

On Saturday morning, CCTV footage showing Jain receiving a full-body massage in Tihar Jail surfaced on social media.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday reacted to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Satyendar Jain's viral video and slammed Amit Shah for receiving "VIP treatment", reported news agency ANI. "They're calling it massage, VIP treatment but it's only physiotherapy. When Amit Shah was minister in Gujarat, he was the one who received VIP treatment here, no such thing for Jain," said Kejriwal in Vadodara.

On Saturday morning, CCTV footage showing Jain receiving a full-body massage in Tihar Jail surfaced on social media, two days after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) demanded that the minister be moved from the prison.

Sisodia claimed that the "physiotherapy" was necessary because of a spinal injury and that the BJP was to blame for releasing the CCTV footage.

The Aam Aadmi Party received massive criticism after the leaked video showed jailed minister Satyendar Jain receiving massage and meeting visitors in his prison cell. The opposition BJP and Congress demanded his sacking and questioning the "silence" of Kejriwal. 

"Only BJP can make cruel jokes by leaking CCTV footage of an injured person's treatment... His (Satyendar Jain's) spine was damaged, it's on record," he had said on Saturday.

Calling out the Minister, the Indian Association of Physiotherapists tweeted on Saturday, "IAP strongly condemns the statement of the minister degrading physiotherapy by comparing it with massage given to another minister. Shows the level of education and knowledge to them about our noble profession."

The association's president denounced the minister in a video and demanded an apology from him.
