The LG vs Kejriwal feud has escalated to unprecedented levels, with Kejriwal now writing scathing letter to none other than Mukesh Ambani, accusing the industrial tycoon of interfering in the day to day affairs of the Delhi government through his agents. Kejriwal had earlier shot off a similar letter to the PM.

Kejriwal reportedly took the extreme step after his meeting with the President left him dissatisfied. “Arvind had made an impassioned pitch to the President about the self-righteousness of his stand but the President simply kept saying ‘mein’. The PM also doesn’t seem interested in replying to Arvind’s letter. So this left us with no option other than appealing to Ambani directly,” Manish Sisodia explained.
Here are the explosive contents of the letter:
Dear Mukesh ji,
Is it not enough that all other governors, cabinet secretaries and Union Cabinet ministers report to you? Why do you want to exercise control over the chief secretary to my government as well through your agent Jung ji?
After recently having purged AAP off agents loyal to you, I am determined clean up the bureaucracy of the Delhi administration as well. The people of Delhi gave a decisive mandate to be governed by AAP, not Antilia. Please respect the people’s mandate and direct Pranab ji to direct Modi ji to rein in Jung ji. If not, I will have no option left but to conduct a dharna in front of Antilia sting you.
Yours,
An aam aadmi who happens to be Delhi CM,
Arvind
PS: Good show for shutting out CSK.
Home Minister Rajnath Singh has chided the Delhi CM for escalating matters to the level of Mukesh Ambani. “The Delhi CM has gone berserk and lacks sense of proportion. What was the need to drag Mukesh ji, who we know is a modern day Maharana Pratap? At the very least, he could have addressed the letter to some senior Reliance executive instead of Mukesh ji. I once again appeal to Kejriwal ji to have a face to face meeting with Jung ji and sort out all differences,” the Home Minister said.
