AAP national convener and former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal will move to 5, Ferozeshah Road bungalow of Ashok Mittal, the partys Rajya Sabha MP from Punjab. Kejriwal and his family will thus vacate the CM residence at Civil Lines. Earlier in the day, former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia shifted to a bungalow on Rajendra Prasad Road. The house is the official residence of AAP Rajya Sabha MP Harbhajan Singh, party leaders said. Kejriwal will move into 5, Ferozeshah Road residence of AAP MP from Punjab Ashok Mittal on Friday, AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj told reporters at a press conference. Mittal, founder of Lovely Professional University, Jalandhar, was picked by the Aam Aadmi Party as one of its seven Rajya Sabha members in 2022 and was allotted the Ferozeshah Road MP bungalow. While the bungalow will remain allotted to Mittal, Kejriwal and his family will move into it for the time being. Several party leaders, including MPs, MLAs and councillors, had offered Kejriwal their houses after he decided to leave 6, Flagstaff Road in north Delhis Civil Lines, where he lived since 2015 as the chief minister, Bharadwaj said. The new accommodation of Kejriwal, where he will move in with his family, is close to the AAP headquarters at Ravi Shankar Shukla Lane. Living in the New Delhi area, which is also his Assembly constituency, Kejriwal will supervise AAPs campaign for the upcoming polls in Delhi and other states, party leaders said. The 6, Flagstaff Road house where Kejriwal lived with his family, including his wife, children and elderly parents, was targeted by the BJP as Sheesh Mahal over alleged irregularities in its reconstruction. Party leaders said Sisodia moved with his family from the AB-17 bungalow on Mathura Road that was earlier allotted to him as deputy chief minister of Delhi. The bungalow was allotted to the Delhi government minister and now chief minister, Atishi, after Sisodia was arrested in the excise policy case in March 2023. Atishi currently lives in her Kalkaji constituency house even after becoming the chief minister while Sisodia and his family were living in the Mathura Road bungalow, they said.
