In the wake of President's rule being imposed in Arunchal Pradesh and Uttarakhand owing to a crisis in the ruling party, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today said he will never let such an "incident" be repeated in the national capital.

While noting that the Opposition should be heard by the ruling party MLAs, Kejriwal also asked the Opposition to respect the mandate of the people. Referring to the imposition of President's Rule in Arunchal Pradesh and Uttrakhand, Kejriwal said, "Opposition should respect the mandate of Delhiites. We will never let the incident of Arunachal Pradesh and Uttrakhand be repeated in Delhi."

On Tuesday, Kejriwal had slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the imposition of President's rule in Uttarakhand, claiming that the Centre would try to "destabilise" the Delhi and Himachal Pradesh governments.
