“I have received a message from the BJP — Break AAP and join BJP. We will ensure that all cases by CBI and ED against you are closed. “My reply to BJP — I am a descendant of Maharana Pratap and a Rajput. I am ready to get beheaded but can never bow down before conspirators and corrupt people. All the cases against me are false. Do whatever you want to do,” he said in a tweet in Hindi.
