Kejriwal’s resignation : Politics is once again in full swing in Delhi. After the resignation of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, the 26-year-old history is going to repeat itself in Delhi. In 1998, Sushma Swaraj was made Chief Minister after the resignation of Sahib Singh Burma on corruption charges. Now after the announcement of Kejriwal’s resignation, such an incident is going to happen again in the capital. In fact, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, caught in the excise policy scam, has announced that he will resign within two days.
Kejriwal’s resignation : Kejriwal walked out of Tihar last week after spending almost five and a half months in jail. As soon as he got out of jail, he announced his resignation in a masterstroke. This is not the first time that a Delhi Chief Minister has to resign due to corruption. Earlier, the Chief Minister of Delhi has already resigned due to corruption allegations.
Kejriwal’s resignation : In 1996, the then Chief Minister and veteran BJP leader Madan Lal Khurana had to resign. At that time, Madan Lal Khurana and the then BJP president Lal Krishna Advani were involved in the Jain diary case or hawala scam. The opposition cornered the BJP on this issue.
Kejriwal’s resignation : Later, in January 1996, LK Advani resigned as BJP president. After this, Madan Lal Khurana also resigned from the post of Chief Minister. He was succeeded by Sahib Singh Verma as the Chief Minister of Delhi and held the post for two years. However, due to the increase in onion prices before the assembly elections, he also had to resign from the post.
