A house has been finalized for AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal in the New Delhi area, where he will move with his family within the next one to two days, vacating the official chief minister’s residence at Flagstaff Road in Civil Lines. Sources within the party indicated that Kejriwal is likely to relocate to one of the two official bungalows allocated to AAP Rajya Sabha MPs on Feroz Shah Road near Mandi House. These bungalows are just a short distance from the AAP headquarters on Ravi Shankar Shukla Lane.
"Kejriwal will leave the official CM residence in next 1-2 days, as a house has been finalised for him and his family," the party said in a statement without disclosing location of the new accommodation.
Sources said Kejriwal, who is the New Delhi constituency MLA, wanted to live in the area ahead of the Delhi Assembly elections to be held in a few months. “The house that he will move into is close to the party headquarters. It has been given to him and his family by a supporter,” the source added. Earlier, the Aam Aadmi Party wrote to the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), asking that Kejriwal be allotted a house as he is the head of a national party.
