New Delhi, April 5: Slamming the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Sunita Kejriwal, Bhagat Singh's grandson, Yadvinder Sandhu, has criticised the party over Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's portrait being displayed alongside those of revolutionary freedom fighters Bhagat Singh and B.R. Ambedkar.

Sandhu expressed his displeasure at the comparison made between Kejriwal and these revered figures, stating that Bhagat Singh had sacrificed his life for the nation, while Kejriwal faces allegations of corruption and potential jail time. Sandhu urged the AAP to refrain from such actions.

“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,” said Yadvinder Sandhu.

He said, "Bhagat Singh sacrificed his life for the people of the country. Contrarily, AAP's Arvind Kejriwal is facing jail time over alleged corruption charges."


Notably, Sunita Kejriwal, the wife of Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, delivered a video message on April 4, reading out a statement written by the AAP supremo while he remains in jail. What made this message noteworthy was the backdrop, which prominently featured an image portraying Arvind Kejriwal in a jailed context, positioned alongside iconic figures Bhagat Singh and BR Ambedkar.


She conveyed Arvind Kejriwal's instructions to Delhi residents, emphasising that despite his imprisonment, he urged every MLA to daily visit their respective areas, address people's concerns, and resolve them to ensure the well-being of the people of Delhi.
