Arvind Kejriwal has billed the move to add Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesh's images to notes as a way to improve India's economic situation.

Popular musician and vocal Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supporter Vishal Dadlani has offered a veiled criticism of the Arvind Kejriwal-led party's demand to introduce the images of Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesh on currency notes.

Without taking any names, Mr Dadlani tweeted, "The Constitution of India states that we are a Secular Socialist Republic. Hence, religion must have NO PLACE in governance. To be completely clear, I have nothing to do with anyone who brings any part of any religion to any aspect of government. Jai Hind."

While the musician did not take names, it is evident that he was referring to AAP as the post came hours after Mr Kejriwal's video address in which he billed the move to add Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesh's images to notes as a way to improve India's economic situation.

"On Indian currency there is a photo of Gandhi ji; let that be. On the other side, a photo of Shri Ganesh Ji and Lakshmi ji should be added," said the Delhi Chief Minister. "As I said we have to make a lot of effort to improve the economic situation of our country. Our efforts bear fruit when we have the blessings of Gods and Goddesses. The whole country will get blessings if on currency notes, there is a photo of Ganesh Ji and Lakshmi ji on one side and Gandhi ji on the other side," he added.
