BJP Protests Over Arvind Kejriwal's "Extravagant' Bungalow
The Bharatiya Janata Party launched a protest Thursday outside Arvind Kejriwal's home over allegations Delhi's ruling party spent ₹ 45 crore - on extravagant lights and gold-plated wash basins - to renovate the Aam Aadmi Party boss' residence when he was Chief Minister. The protesters included the party's newest recruit - former AAP leader Kailash Gahlot, who quit Sunday with a parting jab at Mr Kejriwal over this very issue. In his resignation letter Mr Gahlot referred to the 'sheeshmahal' controversy, as the BJP has dubbed it, and said it is "making everyone doubt whether we (the AAP) still believe in being the 'aam aadmi' (the common man)".
