Kiran Bedi: A day after joining the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Kiran Bedi said on Friday she was ready to contest against Aam Aadmi Party chief and her former Team Anna colleague, Arvind Kejriwal, in the Delhi assembly polls if her party wants.

Bedi rebutted AAP's criticism over changing her stand on not joining politics, saying she was free to make her own choices and her "aversion" was gone due to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership.

"The constituency selection is always a decision of party. I will go by their decision. If they want me to fight against him, I will do so. Because they know better than I do. They have not brought me to lose, they have brought me to win," the former IPS officer said when asked whether she is likely to be pitted against Kejriwal in the upcoming polls.

The AAP had on Thursday termed her joining BJP as "shocking".

"It is sad and shocking that Bedi, who had been maintaining that she will always remain apolitical and keep raising the issues of people, has joined the BJP. Our best wishes are with her," party leader Sanjay Singh had said.
