Following his resignation as Delhi Chief Minister, AAP head Arvind Kejriwal is likely to vacate the official CM residence on Friday.
PTC News Desk: Following his resignation as Delhi Chief Minister, AAP head Arvind Kejriwal is likely to vacate the official CM residence on Friday.
According to party sources, he is going to relocate to a bungalow at 5, Ferozshah Road, which is now assigned to AAP Rajya Sabha MP Ashok Mittal.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) confirmed the decision, adding that "Arvind Kejriwal will shift to the bungalow allocated to party MP Ashok Mittal at 5, Ferozshah Road."
Notably, according to sources, Mittal had extended the invitation for Arvind Kejriwal to relocate to his home.
Earlier, the opposition had stated, "Arvind Kejriwal is looking for a property which is dispute free and there is no problem in living there."
"AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal will soon leave CM residence and search for his new house has been intensified. He is giving preference to living around New Delhi, from where he is an MLA to remain connected with the people. Many MLAs, councillors, party workers and common people are offering their houses to the AAP Chief," AAP said.
Notably, on September 17, Kejriwal tendered his resignation as Chief Minister to Delhi LG VK Saxena, after which Atishi staked claim to form the new government, just days after the AAP chairman was released on bail from Tihar jail in the excise policy case.
Kejriwal stated that he will return to the office only if he receives a renewed mandate and a "certificate of honesty" from the people of Delhi in the upcoming assembly elections in February 2025.
