Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Monday alleged that Narendra Modi's nationalism is "fake", and asked which "nationalist prime minister" gets the chief minister of the national capital "attacked".
"Modi's nationalism is fake. Modiji's nationalism is cheating. Modiji has created a fake 'mayajaal' (illusion) of nationalism... Go beyond this 'mayajaal', you'll see the truth," he said at a press conference at the AAP headquarters in the capital.
Kejriwal was referring to his Saturday's roadshow in New Delhi constituency, during which he was slapped by a man. The AAP supremo has blamed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the attack.

He also alleged that "tax terrorism" in the country has destroyed businesses, and urged traders to vote for his party.
"Income Tax and ED notices are going to all traders across the country. Thousands and lakhs of notices are going. This is all done to extort money. In one way, there is tax terrorism in the country and it has destroyed business and financial system of the country," he said.
The AAP supremo appealed to traders to help his party win all seven Lok Sabha seats in Delhi, and promised that he will stop sealing across the national capital.
"Give all seven seats to AAP, I'll stop sealing. Make our hand strong in the central government, we will help you," Kejriwal said.
