Delhi Congress Chief Devendra Yadav on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) after Arvind Kejriwal's resignation as Delhi Chief Minister. Yadav stated that Kejriwal's resignation was not a voluntary decision, but rather a forced one due to the court's restrictions.
He emphasized that if Kejriwal had truly resigned on moral grounds, he would have done so long ago.
Congress Delhi Chief Devendra Yadav on Tuesday said that Arvind Kejriwal was forced to resign from the CM post when the court has restricted him, saying "AAP are completely exposed."
"They (AAP) are now completely exposed in front of the people. If he (Arvind Kejriwal) had resigned on moral grounds, he would have done it long ago. Now, when the court has restricted him, he is forced to resign. Despite all of this, today he is saying that people will decide. The people can be emotional. But whether you are guilty or not, will be decided by court," Yadav said.
Meanwhile, on the new CM designate Atishi, AAP MP Malvinder Singh Kang said, "Proposing Atishi's name as the new CM of Delhi is a very good step and we welcome this. Atishi will take forward the works of Arvind Kejriwal. He will go among the people and the public will decide whether to make him CM or not."
