Under fire from political opponents, former AAP leaders and a handful of AAPtards for hugging corrupt RJD leader Lalu Prasad Yadav on stage at Nitish Kumar’s oath taking ceremony, Arvind Kejriwal has decided to re-purify himself by hugging his own person.
Kejriwal himself made the announcement on Twitter. “Doston, after consulting party workers and the people of Delhi, I have decided to recharge my purity level. Since I am my own soap, I will do so by hugging myself in public view,” he tweeted.
AAP supporters or AAPtards as they are referred to on Twitter, have wholeheartedly welcomed Arvind’s initiative.
“First of all, I don’t believe that any of Lalu’s taint stuck to Arvind just because they hugged on stage. Does the Ganga become any less pure after washing the sins of millions of humans? If anything, a bit of Lalu’s taint was removed because he had the good fortune to hug Arvind. That said, the fact that Arvind is still trying to address this misconception and make amends shows his greatness,” said an AAPtard.
“At least Arvind is doing something. Did Modi do anything to purify himself after he went and hugged that corrupt fellow, Mukesh Ambani?” said another AAPtard.
According to sources, Kejriwal wasn’t Kejriwal’s first choice for the purification exercise. “Arvind was all set to travel to Ralegon Siddhi to publicly hug Anna Hazare and recharge his purity. But Anna would have none of it, which left Arvind with no other option but to hug himself,” said an AAP leader under condition of anonymity.
