Arvind Kejriwal to stay in the same cell where Anna was kept in 2011

"He was then kept in the meditation ward of jail number four where he will sleep on the floor. He will get routine jail food which is given to all the prisoners. As he is diabetic, he has been allowed his medicines after court order," Gupta said.

There is no television in the ward and Kejriwal would get newspapers to read in his cell, he said.

The former Delhi chief minister will have to spend at least one day and two nights in the same cell where his once mentor Anna Hazare was kept for a day during the 2011 Lokpal movement, he said.

After the local court pronounced its order, Kejriwal was taken into lock up inside the court premises amid tight security.
