Arvind Kejriwal blasted the media for making a big issue of his resignation and not doing anything similar about Narendra Modi. Accusing the media of double standards, Kejriwal ranted, “ I have resigned only twice in my career. Once from IRS and the second time as the Delhi CM. Yeah, the latter probably cost me a bit. However, look at how media went to town over it! My career was badly impacted and I was positioned as someone who runs away. Bhagoda they called me!”

“Now look at Narendra Modi and his resignations!” Kejriwal screamed and went on to state the numerous posts Modi has resigned or going to resign from:

“He has resigned as MLA from Maninagar constituency in Gujarat.

He has resigned as Chief Minister of Gujarat.

He is going to resign as MP from Vadodara

He is also going to resign from being the head of Gujarat Cricket Association.

He is also no longer holding the position of the BJP’s prime ministerial candidate.”

“”In one month this person has resigned from 4-5 positions. No one is making fun of him or calling him a quitter. At the same time, I continue to be a MLA of Delhi, I continue holding my positions in AAP. If I am a Bhagoda, Modi is a bigger Bhagoda. Unfortunately people only are positioning him doing his role as PM and have forgotten all the resignations. This just proves media is corporate owned,” the Tata employee turned IRS officer turned civil society activist turned politician fumed.

AAP rajguru Yogendra Yadav added his spin by saying, “It is not that we are against the resignations. But did Modiji follow the right process? Did he ask people of Baroda and Varanasi by a SMS poll before deciding which constituency to retain? Did he ask people of Gujarat through a call in on who should be their CM? This just betrays the domineering and controlling instincts Modiji is notorious for.”
