“Arvind Kejriwal will not resign at all and will work for the two crore people of Delhi. It is said that how will one write a letter… I have come back after spending six months in jail. It is written in the jail manual that any person can write unlimited letters while in jail…If someone wants to write a government letter, then permission is required from the court,” said Sanjay Singh.
Singh after spending six months behind bars said it was not the time to celebrate but struggle hoping that other jailed party leaders will also come out soon. After his release, Singh left for Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence where he met his wife Sunita Kejriwal.
While addressing the party members, Singh launched a scathing attack on the ruling BJP. “You are questioning a man of corruption who left his IRS job to serve the country…BJP’s next name is not Bharatiya Janta Party but Bangaru Janta Party…” said Singh. The AAP MP added that BJP will not spare corrupt people, every corrupt person will be included (in the party).
“I feel pity for the workers of the BJP. They got ready in Assam for the corruption of Himanta Biswa Sarma. Workers were preparing for a parade of him and meanwhile, PM Modi was giving hugs to Himanta Biswa Sarma…” remarked Singh.
Singh had been lodged in the high-security prison since October 13, 2023. He came out at 8.11 pm through the gate number three.Kejriwal behind bars:
