Suspended Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) minister Kapil Mishra announced today that he was going to file FIRs or police complaints against his boss Arvind Kejriwal, dramatically seeking his blessings and forgiveness before "the biggest step of my life". "Bless me… I am filing an FIR against you," Mishra said, addressing the media in Delhi and reading out a letter he wrote to the AAP convener. Mishra also alleged that Kejriwal was trying to remove him as an MLA. "You are trying to remove me from assembly, I challenge you to contest the elections against me," he said, challenging Kejriwal to resign and contest the election against him, adding that he knew every 'trick' and 'step' of the Delhi CM. On Monday, Mishra went to the Anti Crime Branch and submitted what he claimed was evidence against Kejriwal in a scam. He added that the ACB has asked him to visit their office once again in a few days. Later in the day, he dared the party to expel him, which the party did, suspending him from the primary membership of the party. Mishra claims that he saw Kejriwal take Rs 2 crore in cash from Satyendra Jain, another minister in the Delhi government, at his Delhi residence.  Late Monday evening, Kejriwal tweeted, breaking his silence on the allegation. "Truth will win. Tomorrow's special session of the Delhi Assembly is where it begins," he said. Delhi Congress chief Ajay Maken, reacting to the developments this morning, questioned whether anyone is allowed to dissent against Kejriwal in the Aam Aadmi Party. "Where is the internal democracy in the AAP? The basic premises have been compromised with. It is worse than other political parties and is functioning under the dictatorship of Arvind Kejriwal," Maken said. Last evening, Mr Kejriwal, accused by Mr Mishra of bribery, broke his silence in a tweet, saying: "truth will prevail". A special one-day sitting of the Delhi assembly today would mark the beginning, he commented. Ankit Lal, who is heads AAP's IT and Innovation cell, had last night tweeted, "No. @ArvindKejriwal is not resigning. But it's something bigger than this...Watch out...today, 2pm, Delhi assembly!"

New Delhi:Upset over not getting a rating upgrade, India has lashed out at global rating agencies saying they are far detached from ground realities and must introspect as the reforms initiated certainly warranted an upgrade.
According to media reports from Japan, Economic Affairs Secretary Shaktikanta Das said India was being denied an upgrade even as growth and fundamentals improve. In the past too, India has questioned the methodology used by global rating agencies, saying that the nation compares favourably with other emerging countries on metrics such as default risk. In particular, it points to S&P Global Ratings keeping China at AA- despite rising debt and slowing growth while India has been kept at one step above junk.
