New Delhi:
Arvind Kejriwal, who has been attacking political leaders for using chartered aircraft of corporates, today created flutter by himself travelling in such an aircraft from Jaipur to Delhi.
Mr Kejriwal said the India Today Group arranged for the aircraft as they wanted him to attend their conclave.
"Reached india today conclave from jaipur. Since there was no regular flt, india today group hired a charter to reach me in delhi on time... india today has paid for it. I wud urge modi ji and rahul gandhi ji also to disclose whose planes r they using and who pays for them (sic)," the former Delhi Chief Minister tweeted on Friday evening.
"As a regular practice for Conclave India Today Group organizes charters to suit tight schedule of newsmakers," India Today said in a tweet.
BJP's Smriti Irani attacked Mr Kejriwal saying he was "hypocritical" as he claims to be against VIP culture but does not follow what he says.
"He has not even vacated the house he was allotted after becoming Chief Minister of Delhi," she said.
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah tweeted, "I didn't know India Today organises charters for people on tight schedules to get to Delhi, I'd have asked for 1 instead of flying budget :) (sic)."
