When the Oath taking ceremony held on November 20, the Delhi Chief Minister and his counterpart Lalu Prasad Yadav hugged each other which draw everyone’s attention.
Kaejriwal clarified his supporters and everyones question of hugging Lalu Prasad at AAP’s National Council Meeting.
Arvind said that, "it was Lalu who pulled me and raised my hand and that it certainly did not amount to an alliance, I am against Lalu's record of corruption and dynasty politics."
Kejriwal termed the JD(U) leader as a good person and someone who has done good work. And also said that, "I go to Rashtrapati Bhawan. All party leaders come there. They meet us. In Nitish Kumar's swearing-in, Lalu Prasad was on the stage. He shook my hand and pulled and hugged me. He (also) held my hand and raised it. It was projected and questions were asked. We have not formed an alliance.”
“We are against his record of corruption and we'll always oppose it," Kejriwal asserted. "We are against dynasty politics. His two sons are ministers. We are against that too. I am happy that questions are being asked. This is because people have hope, they think we are different. Nobody asks questions when other leaders hug Lalu ji, it's good for us," he said.
