Kejriwal, who has been in custody since March 21 due to an Enforcement Directorate (ED) investigation into a money laundering case, remains steadfast in his role as Delhi’s leader, with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) asserting that he will govern from jail.
Earlier, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and AAP’s national general secretary Sandeep Pathak visited Kejriwal in Tihar Jail on April 15. Pathak revealed that Kejriwal plans to meet with two ministers each week to review the progress of work in their respective departments.
Despite his incarceration, Kejriwal continues to address important issues such as water supply and healthcare services through messages to his ministers and party MLAs, emphasizing his commitment to serving the people of Delhi.
