‘Janta Ki Adalat’: “I Did Not Come To Do Corruption”, Kejriwal On Resignation

Former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal delivered a powerful address at the ‘Janta Ki Adalat’ event held at Jantar Mantar on Sunday, launching a direct assault on the Central government led by Prime Minister Modi. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief asserted that he entered politics with the goal of enacting meaningful change rather than pursuing personal gain.

“I resigned because I did not come to do corruption or to earn money. I came to change the politics of the country,” Kejriwal stated, reflecting on his political journey. He recalled the challenges posed during the Anna Hazare movement, emphasizing that elections could be won based on honesty.

Kejriwal further remarked, “These leaders have thick skin; they are not affected by the allegations. I am affected; I am not a leader.” He noted that he would soon vacate the Chief Minister’s residence.

Kejriwal defended his decade-long tenure, asserting that his government had made significant strides in providing free electricity and water, enhancing healthcare, and improving education. He alleged that a conspiracy had been orchestrated to tarnish his reputation and that of AAP leaders, including Manish Sisodia, leading to their imprisonment.

“Lawyers said this case could drag on for ten years. I cannot live with this stain. So I thought I would go to the court of the people. If I were dishonest, I would have embezzled,” he contended.

The event saw the presence of several AAP leaders, including Delhi Chief Minister Atishi. The event emphasized the party’s collective resolve in the face of adversity. Kejriwal’s passionate address aimed to rally support and reaffirm his commitment to the principles of honesty and accountability in governance.

The former Delhi CM also posed a series of direct questions to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat. Kejriwal continued raising concerns about the BJP’s current practices under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership. Kejriwal challenged the RSS, saying that it often “claims to be nationalist and patriotic”, and should reflect on the state of democracy in the country.
