Kejriwal says decision to quit was taken at PAC meeting

He admitted that after a gap of one and half month since his resignation, people have now changed their mind and have started supporting the party.

Kejriwal also clarified that he did not take gangster turned-politician Mukhtar Ansari's support in his fight against Narendra Modi in Varanasi. The Mhow strongman has withdrawn from the electoral race in Varanasi to avoid “division” of secular votes.

“We have not taken support of Mukhtar Ansari, nor did we have any meeting with him. He has also not given us any support.

“He has just said that he is not contesting the election. That is entirely upto him. So, there is no question of taking (his) support. We are not going to have any communication with Ansari.
