The Aam Aadmi Party chief is taking a leaf out of PM Modi's book of public relations and has now decided to reach out to Delhi through a radio show, much like Modi's much hyped PR exercise 'Mann Ki Baat '.

His admirers would perhaps claim that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has inspired millions across the globe, but this is a fan even they were surely not expecting. Guess who has decided to follow in the footsteps of Modi? Arvind Kejriwal. Yes, you heard it right.

The Aam Aadmi Party chief is taking a leaf out of PM Modi's book of public relations and has now decided to reach out to Delhi through a radio show, much like Modi's much hyped PR exercise 'Mann Ki Baat '.

A report on NDTV states: "The Aam Aadmi Party chief's version of "Mann ki Baat" (talk from the heart) - made popular by Prime Minister Narendra Modi who makes public addresses on All India Radio every now and then on a Sunday - begins on December 3, next Wednesday."

While Kejriwal is not exploring radio as a medium to reach out to the audience for the first time, he has taken it up more seriously this time around. During the Lok Sabha polls this year, Kejriwal was heard across radio channels this year trying to justify his decision of quitting as the CM. In a short, hurried monologue he was heard telling people how he had quit on principle to avoid yielding to corrupt forces.

However, this time around, the BJP is in no mood to give Kejriwal a free run even in the radio space. According to NDTV, "Mr Kejriwal's recorded messages have been playing again on city FM channels, countered this time by the BJP's campaign. The ruling party has not only been airing messages from its Delhi unit leaders, but also its star campaigner, PM Modi, exhorting people to join his 'Swachch Bharat' campaign or talking about his government's other achievements."

An article on Jagran Post notes that Kejriwal's shows are going air only on private FM channels.
