Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on arrival in Bihar faced protests from Anna Hazare supporters at airport. The AAP leader was also shown black flags and asked to go back to Delhi.
Kejriwal is in Bihar to support Chief Minister Nitish Kumar at a function on Thursday, which is considered an event important to boost Kumar’s chances in the coming assembly polls in the state.
Kumar and Kejriwal would be together at a seminar to celebrate completion of four years of Right to Service Act in Bihar, an official statement said. The event comes close on the heels of the two leaders sharing platform at a programme in Delhi to honour people excelling in different fields while living in the national capital.
Kumar and the Aam Admi Party chief have been enjoying close relationship for quite some time.
Kumar’s party JD(U) did not field any candidate in Delhi election against AAP and JD(U) leaders even campaigned for Kejriwal’s party.
Kejriwal reciprocated the gesture by appealing to people from Bihar living in Delhi to impress upon their relatives back home to vote for Kumar in the crucial Bihar assembly election scheduled in September-October.
Presence of Kejriwal is also seen as an attempt to stir youths in favour of Kumar and to boost his image.
