Kejriwal had fought against corruption by fasting for 13 days. This fight will continue.”

Sanjay Singh said, “The government is taking action against all kinds of harassment, has come down at every level. This action is only because Arvind Kejriwal exposed corruption in the Delhi Assembly. What is the excise policy, I had shown you how the ED is working and saying that the phones have been broken, while those phones are with the ED. It’s a bunch of lies, let alone that.”
