In a recent address to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) workers, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal declared his intention to resign from his position. The announcement came amid ongoing tensions with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and various political challenges.
Kejriwal asserted that with the blessings of the public, he and his party have the strength to counter all of BJP’s conspiracies. He emphasized that the AAP would neither bow down, halt, nor sell out to the BJP. According to Kejriwal, the honesty of his administration was a point of contention, as those opposing him are themselves dishonest.
