New Delhi: A one-day special session of the Delhi Assembly was convened on Monday. Addressing the special session of the House, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal drew an analogy between AAP and BJP. In a veiled attack on the saffron party and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Delhi CM (without naming anybody) weaved out a story between a fourth-standard pass out King and an educated King. Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal called himself an educated ruler of the state.
In the Delhi assembly, CM Kejriwal stated, "A fourth standard pass out once became King and he turned autocratic. But before becoming the King, he used to sell tea at a stall. The King was repenting that he did not have a degree. Hence he procured a degree from a University. When someone filed an RTI query, a fine of Rs 25,000 was imposed on the applicant by the autocratic King."
Carrying out his anecdotal story in the Delhi Assembly further, CM Kejriwal also spoke about the decisions that were taken by the King, which brought misery to the people. Demonetization as well as an attempt to implement three black farm laws caused immense hardships to people, he said adding that similar to the present King, Mohammad Bin Tughlaq was known for taking such wild decisions.
Further, Kejriwal said, "The King began giving contracts to his friend, thinking one day he will not have a job... The King was taking cut money in lieu of giving contracts to his friend."

Calling himself Kattar Imandar (dry honest), Kejriwal said, "When the King of a small state started working for the benefit of the people, the King took it otherwise. The King of a small state opened Mohalla Clinic, modern schools for providing education to children and also provided subsidised power connections to people. The King became upset and summoned the King of a small state. The King pulled up the King of a small state and also threatened to put him behind bars."
