Kejriwal's corrupt face exposed, should quit as Delhi CM: Amarinder

May 07, 2017 18:17

Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh today sought the resignation of his Delhi counterpart, Arvind Kejriwal, claiming that the AAP supremo

had no moral right to continue in office as his "corrupt face" had been "totally exposed".

The Congress leader said his party had for long been maintaining that Kejriwal was a "dacoit", who was "only interested in filling his pockets".

His comments came in the backdrop of sacked Delhi minister Kapil Mishra today accusing Kejriwal of taking Rs 2 crore from his cabinet colleague Satyendra Jain, a charge refuted by Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia.

Singh said given the seriousness of the allegations levelled against him and his party over the past several months, Kejriwal should have resigned a long time ago.

"But being a shameless person that he is, the Aam Aadmi Party leader will not even quit now," he added.
