Anna Hazare commented that he had advised Mr Kejriwal against entering politics long ago, but he did not heed his advice.
Hours after Delhi Chief Minister and AAP national Convenor Arvind Kejriwal announced his decision to resign from the top ministerial position on Sunday, mere days after being released on bail in the Delhi excise policy case, social worker Anna Hazare reacted to the development.
The Gandhian social activist commented that he had advised Mr Kejriwal against entering politics long ago, but he did not heed his advice.
Anna Hazare, who had previously led an anti-corruption movement with Mr Kejriwal at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan, remarked: "I had already advised Kejriwal not to enter politics. I explained multiple times that true fulfilment lies in social service, but he did not listen. I have been saying from the beginning that Arvind Kejriwal should not have ventured into politics. He chose not to heed my advice."
