Speaking at the event, Arvind Kejriwal explained the reasons for his resignation, saying “I resigned because I was hurt by corruption allegations. I have only earned respect, not money.”

Further, he also slammed PM Modi, stating “For the last ten years, we were running the government honestly. We made electricity and water free, provided free treatment, and improved education… Modi ji started thinking that if he wanted to win against us, he would have to attack our honesty. He then hatched a conspiracy to label Kejriwal, Sisodia, and AAP as dishonest and imprison every leader.” said Kejriwal.
