Sanjay Singh said, “As a Chief Minister, one is entitled to many privileges, which Arvind Kejriwal also received. After resigning yesterday, he decided to give up all these facilities. There are concerns about his security as several attempts have been made to attack him. BJP members have orchestrated attacks, and he has even been physically harmed. We are worried about the safety of his family as well.”
