Claim
Today, AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal said that the Aam Aadmi Party is the true Sanatani party.
“आज उसी आम आदमी पार्टी के नेता अरविंद केजरीवाल ने भी कहा है कि आम आदमी पार्टी सच्ची सनातनी पार्टी है।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Multiple independent mainstream outlets (ThePrint, NewsDrum, Daily Pioneer, Lokmat) report that on 1 July 2026 Arvind Kejriwal, while attacking the BJP over alleged misappropriation of Ram Mandir donations, explicitly called the Aam Aadmi Party the 'true Sanatani' party. The anchor's paraphrase accurately reflects Kejriwal's actual statement made that day.
