Delhi Congress President Devender Yadav on Sunday welcomed the decision of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to resign from his post, but claimed that this decision should have happened six months ago. He should have tendered his resignation six months ago then the public of Delhi would not have gone through a lot of crisis, Yadav said, adding that this looks like a political drama as the Supreme Court has already imposed restrictions on him. A new Chief Minister should be appointed as soon as possible, the Delhi Congress chief demanded. He said that the public of Delhi is aware and they will surely give an answer to the AAPs misgovernance in the Delhi Assembly elections. Responding to the announcement of Kejriwal resigning two days later, Yadav said, Kejriwal should have resigned as soon as he came out of jail, as there was no point clinging to the post of Chief Minister with the apex court putting a lot of restrictions on him. Why is he waiting for two days? He added that Kejriwal had lost his moral right to continue as Chief Minister. He has no right to continue on the post after he was sent to jail in connection with the liquor scam, following his arrest by the ED for money laundering and CBI for corruption, as governance took a back in the past six months, with people going through untold suffering due to waterlogging, water shortage, garbage pile up and deaths due to drowning in flood waters and electrocution, as nearly 40 people had lost their lives in the past two months in rain related mishaps, he said. He accused the AAP supremo of not resigning so that his family could live in the palatial official residence.
