Amid the sudden announcement of resignation by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva on Monday raised questions regarding the resignation two days laters and said that the AAP supremos conduct, image, and character are all under suspicion. Addressing a joint press conference, Sachdeva said, Arvind Kejriwal stated that he would leave his resignation to the public, but the public had already given its verdict long ago when they sent him to jail and didnt response to the Jail ka Jawab Vote Se campaign. He claimed that the announcement for resigning from the post in two days time is probably to settle some remaining issues and gather more money. Given the deep-rooted corruption in the Kejriwal government, the entire cabinet should resign because there is no department untouched by corruption, Sachdeva stated. The Delhi BJP chief alleged that Kejriwal should have resigned following the incident of AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal accusing his aide Bibhav Kumar assaulting her. Arvind Kejriwal is not only the first Chief Minister of Delhi but also the first in the country who called a woman MP to his house and got her mistreated and assaulted. If he had any decency, he would have resigned long ago, Sachdeva said. He also asserted that Delhiites doubt whether Kejriwal will resign, and added that his past actions and changes in statements cast doubt on his announcement. The BJP leader added that the corruption of Kejriwal, who claims to speak of honesty, has hollowed out Delhi like a termite. Every year, 40 to 45 people lose their lives due to waterlogging, h said. South Delhi BJP MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri expressed apprehension that Kejriwals resignation announcement could be just a drama because AAP is an expert in doing drama. A drama of not resigning can also be done by calling a meeting of the legislative party. Therefore, it is not necessary that he resigns as per his announcement. If he submits his resignation to the Lieutenant Governor, only then it will be considered that he has resigned, Bidhuri stated. Referring to the conditions applied on Kejriwals bail, Bidhuri said, The Supreme Court had made it clear while granting bail to Kejriwal that he cannot work as the Chief Minister. He was barred from entering the Secretariat and was also barred from signing any file and his arrest was also declared valid. He added that a situation of constitutional crisis had arisen in Delhi and Kejriwal has no option left except to resign. The festive atmosphere created by the AAP after Kejriwals bail and calling it his victory has also gone.  The Supreme Court has granted him bail but now the Chief Ministers chair is slipping out of his hands, the Delhi BJP MP alleged. Chandni Chowk BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal described Arvind Kejriwal as a person who has outdone even chameleons in changing colours and said, "The demand for Kejriwals resignation amid controversies has raised serious questions on the administrative capability and accountability of Delhi. Kejriwal has described himself as a leader fighting for the interests of the common man, but his resignation is being seen as an attempt to divert attention from the recent allegations and controversies surrounding him and his government. He has proved himself to be a fugitive as it contradicts the principles he espoused earlier," he stated, adding that this is not a voluntary declaration but a result of pressure from the Supreme Court which granted him bail but did not allow him to function as Chief Minister. Further, Sachdeva added that people in Delhi are devoid of drinking water and despite the talk of free electricity, bills are coming with a 45 per cent surcharge. Kejriwal, who talks about free and world-class healthcare services, should explain why more than half of the ICU centers in government hospitals are still non-operational, he questioned. Kejriwal, who spied on opposition leaders and officials, seems to have forgotten about his espionage scandal, and now he is appealing to opposition parties, he said. Further, he added that Kejriwal is showing Bhagat Singhs diary, but he should read his own written Swaraj, in which alcohol was called a curse, and now, by engaging in the liquor trade, he has landed in jail. The Kejriwal government should explain why, if there was no scam in the liquor policy, they withdrew it when the investigation began. The court had sent him to jail, and legal proceedings are still ongoing. Instead of making noise, Kejriwal should focus on these issues, Sachdeva alleged.
