Synopsis

Earlier today, the Delhi High Court dismissed a second PIL seeking Arvind Kejriwal's removal as Chief Minister in light of his arrest by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with a money laundering case linked to the Excise policy.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's wife, Sunita Kejriwal, on Thursday (April 4) conveyed a message from her husband during a press conference, urging AAP MLAs to actively engage in resolving people's issues in their respective constituencies. Kejriwal, currently in Tihar jail, stressed the importance of ensuring that the people of Delhi do not suffer due to his absence.

Addressing a press conference, Sunita Kejriwal said, "Arvind Kejriwal has sent a message to all MLAs: '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'."
