Former Delhi CM and Aam Aadmi Party National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday said that he resigned because he has no greed for CM’s chair and had joined the politics for the country.
Arvind Kejriwal asserted that he is not a politician and the allegations have affected him.
Addressing ‘Janta ki Adalat’ at Jantar Mantar , Kejriwal said, “I resigned because I did not come here (in politics) to do corruption. I don’t have any greed for CM’s chair. I did not come here to earn money. I used the work in Income Tax, I could’ve earned crores if I wanted to earn money. I came in politics for country, for Bharat Mata, to change country’s politics.”
“These politician do not care about allegations, they got thick skin, I am not a politician. I do care when the BJP calls me a thief or corrupt. Today I’m heartbroken and that’s why I resigned.” Kejriwal added.
Kejriwal further asserted that he only ‘earned’ respect and do not even has a house of his own in Delhi.
“I will leave the CM’s bungalow in a few days, I don’t even have a house. I have earned only love in ten years, the result of which is that I am getting calls from so many people asking me to take my house. After the Shraadh is over, at the beginning of Navratri, I will leave the house and come and stay at the house of one of you,” he added.
Launching a scathing attack on BJP, Kejriwal said, “We were running the government honestly, we made electricity and water free, made treatment free for people, made education excellent. However, Modi ji started thinking that if he wanted to win against them, he would have to attack their honesty and then hatched a conspiracy to prove Kejriwal, Sisodia and AAP dishonest and put each and every leader in jail.”
Kejriwal further asked the people in ‘Janata Darbar’ whether they think he is honest or not.
“I want people to tell me if I am honest or dishonest, if I were dishonest, would I be able to give electricity for free? Would I be able to build schools? I wanna know if people think I am the thief or if the people who put me behind bars are the thieves.” Kejriwal said.
