"Replace ink with blood": Is law minister Khursheed threatening Kejriwal with violence?

Union law minister Salman Khursheed reportedly “dared” campaigner Arvind Kejriwal to protest in his Farukkhabad constituency, suggesting it would be hard to return from there. Kejriwal alleged this was a murder threat from the minister.

Last week Kejriwal had demanded Khursheed’s resignation alleging that the minister and his wife were guilty of forgery and embezzlement of funds. He had threatened to protest for the demand. [Express]

In footage aired on some news channels yesterday, Khursheed said:

“I was made the Law Minister and asked to wield a pen…now it is time to replace it with blood.

Let him (Kejriwal) come to Farrukhabad, but how will he go back…Kejriwal says he will ask the questions and asks us to give the answers, you have heard what we have to say, you will forget the questions.” [IBN Live/The Hindu]
