Delhi Congress President Devender Yadav Criticizes Arvind Kejriwal’s Resignation
New Delhi [India], September 22: Delhi Congress President Devender Yadav criticized Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, stating that Kejriwal was forced to resign because the court restricted him from working and people wanted answers about his promises to end corruption.
Yadav said, “In the last 10 years, the Chief Minister used to say that he would take all decisions after asking the people. If he had to resign to prove his innocence, he should have done it when there were charges against him. Arvind Kejriwal is forced to resign as the court has restricted him from working. The public wants to know what happened to the promise of ending corruption. Many leaders of AAP have been in jail on charges of corruption. They should think about the concerns of the public. They have been exposed in front of the public.”
Yadav further questioned Kejriwal’s promises of development, including building 500 schools and providing free water. He said, “Where are the hospitals? He assured that people would get free water. People are drinking dirty water. Tanker mafias are getting encouragement. He is the same person who used to say long ago that if he became the CM, he would run his activities from a small house. Ever since he resigned, his leaders are asking for a government house for him. Former CM Sheila Dikshit had worked to make Delhi a world-class city.”
Former Delhi CM and Aam Aadmi Party National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal responded by saying that he resigned because he has no greed for the CM’s chair and joined politics for the country. Addressing ‘Janta ki Adalat’ at Jantar Mantar, Kejriwal said, “I resigned because I did not come here to do corruption. I don’t have any greed for the CM’s chair. I did not come here to earn money. I used to work in Income Tax, I could’ve earned crores if I wanted to earn money. I came into politics for the country, for Bharat Mata, to change the country’s politics.”
Kejriwal announced his resignation after being released from Tihar jail, where he was held in a corruption case related to the alleged Delhi Excise Policy scam.
