He further said he has been discussing with party leaders including MPs and MLAs on whether he should resign from the post of chief minister or run the government from jail, if the situation comes and he is arrested in connection with the ongoing liquor probe.

He further urged his party workers to take people’s opinion on this, and further asked his party workers to go door to door and seek opinion from every house in Delhi in this regard.
