Several members of the INDIA bloc, including Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit, Sachin Pilot, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MP Manoj Jha had a host of reactions to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s statement of ‘resigning in two days’.
Congress in charge of Chhattisgarh Sachin Pilot said it was the AAP’s decision on who will become the next Chief Minister of Delhi.
“It is their decision whom they will announce as the Chief Minister. Congress party is ready for every challenge…We will form the government in Haryana and J&K…”Pilot was quoted as saying by ANI.
Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit lashed out at Kejriwal, stating that ‘there was no question of (Kejriwal) becoming the CM again’. He further noted that several party members have been urging for Arvind Kejriwal’s resignation for a long time.
“There is no question of becoming the CM again. We have been saying this for a long time that he should resign as the CM… This is a mere gimmick. This happened for the first time when an elected leader came out of jail on bail, and was asked by the SC to not go to the CMO or sign any papers…” Dikshit was quoted as saying by ANI.
The leader also noted that it was the first time that such different conditions, where the Supreme Court did not ask a Chief Minister, upon being released from jail, to go to their office, or sign any papers, were imposed. He added that ‘maybe even the SC fears that this person might try to tamper with the evidence,’ reported ANI.
Meanwhile, Rashtriya Janata Dal (MP), Manoj Jha stated that Kejriwal’s statement will put an ‘end to BJP’s games.’
“This will put a full stop on BJP’s political game. I think he has given a signal that AAP MLAs will elect a new CM,” said Jha, reported PTI.
Incumbent Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who is out on bail, said on Sunday that he will resign in the next two days. He said an Aam Aadmi Party (AA) leader would take over as the chief minister and also demanded early assembly elections in Delhi.
Delhi Assembly Election is scheduled to take place in February 2025.
