Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener and former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will vacate the CM House at 6, Flagstaff Road, Civil Lines on Friday (October 4, 2024) and move to a house in his Assembly constituency of New Delhi, according to party sources.
Mr, Kejriwal who resigned from his position last month, will live with his family at the official residence of Punjab Rajya Sabha MP Ashok Mittal on Ferozeshah Road near Mandi House. It is close to the AAP headquarters at Ravi Shankar Shukla Lane.
AAP had written to the Central government on September 21, urging immediate allotment of an accommodation to him as “mandated” by the Election Commission of India for chiefs of national parties. However, the Centre is yet to respond to the request, sources added.
Mr. Kejriwal resigned his position to prove his innocence and seek a?“certificate of honesty” from the Delhi residents. He also said he would return to the CM post once he wins the trust.
‘Following Mahatma’
Mr. Kejriwal on Wednesday (October 2, 2024) paid tributes to Mahatma Gandhi on his birth anniversary and said it is only Delhi’s AAP government that is fulfilling his dreams.
“From world-class schools to 24x7 essential services, the AAP government is bringing Mahatma’s philosophy to life, shaping a future of equality and progress for all,” he said in a video posted on X.
