AAP says 'NO' to VIP security - NewsX
- 5 years ago
Arvind Kejriwal, who will be Delhi's new Chief Minister, has turned down a government bungalow that comes with his new role.
Mr Kejriwal formally rejected official accommodation - one of the biggest perks of a government post - when Delhi Chief Secretary DM Sapolia came to him with the offer this morning.
Ending the capital's "VIP culture" was one of the key promises made by Mr Kejriwal's year-old Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in its poll manifesto. Following up on that pledge, the chief minister designate has also told the police that he will not accept security cover. "I don't need any security. I don't need any escort...God is my biggest security," he said in a letter to the Delhi Police on Monday.
