Arvind Kejriwal, the leader of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), went to Punjab for a 10-day meditation retreat, which caused quite a stir in politics. After losing the Delhi assembly elections to the BJP, many people criticized him for arriving in a huge security convoy. AAP’s MP Swati Maliwal compared his security to that of former US President Donald Trump.

Kejriwal is known for criticizing VIP culture, yet he was seen traveling in a large group of bulletproof cars, surrounded by over 100 police officers. BJP’s Manjinder Singh Sirsa said Kejriwal now acts like a “maharaja” instead of being a common man, which he used to pretend to be. Congress also joined in the criticism; Sandeep Dikshit pointed out that Kejriwal, who used to promote simplicity, now leads an extravagant lifestyle with an enormous convoy to attend a meditation retreat.

Kejriwal and his wife, Sunita, arrived late Tuesday at a rest house and will attend the meditation course at the Dhamma Dhaja Vipassana Centre, near Hoshiarpur.
