Arvind Kejriwal to Move Out of His Official Residence in 7 Days, Confirms AAP

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will move out of his official residence within one week, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh said on Wednesday, September 18. This comes as Kejriwal , accompanied by a delegation of AAP legislators, visited the L-G Secretariat to tender his resignation and formally took stake claim to form a new government under Atishi's leadership.

Speaking at a press conference here, Singh said that the former Delhi CM would also give up all the facilities he had access to as the chief minister.

“Yesterday after tendering his resignation, Kejriwal said he will leave all the facilities that a chief minister gets, including security, and live as a commoner among the people. We tried to persuade him, saying a lot of attempts to harm him physically have taken place in the past but he was not deterred. He said, 'I have lived in jail for six months, God saved me then, God will save me now," Singh said.

The AAP leader said it was yet to be decided where Kejriwal will live.
