Kejriwal's picture between Bhagat Singh and BR Ambedkar is "symbol of struggle," says AAP
Bhagat Singh's grandson, Yadvinder Sandhu, has slammed the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) over Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's portrait being displayed alongside those of revolutionary freedom fighters Bhagat Singh and B.R. Ambedkar.

“This morning, a video of Sunita Kejriwal (wife of Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal) came in which a photo of Arvind Kejriwal was put on the wall along with Bhagat Singh and Baba Saheb Ambedkar. I felt awful after watching this. An attempt was made to compare him with the legends, I would ask the Aam Aadmi Party to refrain from such activities,” said Yadvinder Sandhu.

He said, "Bhagat Singh sacrificed his life for the people of the country. Contrarily, AAP's Arvind Kejriwal is facing jail time over alleged corruption charges."



Sunita Kejriwal, the wife of Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, delivered a video message on April 4, reading out a statement written by the AAP supremo while he remains in jail.

What made this message noteworthy was the backdrop, which prominently featured an image portraying Arvind Kejriwal in a jailed context, positioned alongside iconic figures Bhagat Singh and BR Ambedkar.

During the video message, Sunita Kejriwal conveyed Arvind Kejriwal's message to the residents of Delhi. She quoted him as saying, "Just because I am in jail, the people of Delhi should not suffer in any way. Every MLA should visit their area every day and discuss people's problems and sort them out."

The digital briefing delivered by Sunita Kejriwal lasted just over a minute.
