NEW DELHI: Yadvinder Sandhu, the grandson of Bhagat Singh, expressed anger on a photo showing Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal hanging between portraits of Bhagat Singh and BR Ambedkar while behind bars on Thursday.
“This morning, a video of Sunita Kejriwal (wife of Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal) came in which a photo of Arvind Kejriwal was put on the wall along with Bhagat Singh and Baba Saheb Ambedkar.I felt awful after watching this. An attempt was made to compare him with the legends, I would ask the Aam Aadmi Party to refrain from such activities.” he said.
A war of words also erupted on Thursday, with the BJP demanding its immediate removal.
During a digital briefing by Kejriwal’s wife Sunita Kejriwal, the background had portraits of Bhagat Singh and BR Ambedkar, flanking a photograph of the Delhi chief minister in jail.
