After Arvind Kejriwal issues yet another apology to Union Minister Nitin Gadkari and Congress leader Kapil Sibal, Twitteratis just couldn't stop cracking over his latest move.
From calling Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal as India's next superhero 'AAPology man' to adding his name to 'Guiness Book of World Records' for holding record of highest number of apologies by a single person, Twitteratis couldn't be more creative.
For all those uninitiated, this is Kejriwal's third apology in less than a week in his latest saga of 'apologies' to save himself from the defamation cases filed against him for making 'derogatory and false' remarks. Till now he has ticked off three cases out of reportedly 33 defamation cases filed against him. Let us watch and see if he actually does manage to hit 33 'sorrys'.
On Monday, Arvind Kejriwal tendered an apology to Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, according to ANI. In a letter he wrote: “I have nothing personal against you. I regret the same. Let us put the incident behind us and bring the court proceedings to a closure."
Kejriwal and Nitin Gadkari have filed a joint application seeking to withdraw the defamation case in Delhi's Patiala Court. The application comes after Kejriwal submitted a letter regretting making defamatory remarks against Gadkari.
Kejriwal also apologised to Congress leader Kapil Sibal. Kejriwal and Sisodia apologised for making "unfounded allegations" against Sibal in a letter which was submitted before Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Samar Vishal.
Sibal has already accepted Kejriwal's apology and said it was time to move ahead.
"Kejriwal Ji and (Manish) Sisodia ji have accepted that the allegations they had put on me and my son in a press conference few years ago were baseless. They've apologised for the same today. He has apologised for what he did everything is forgotten now, we will move ahead," Sibal told. ANI.
Earlier, Kejriwal's letter to former Punjab minister Bikram Singh Majithia drove a wedge between the party's state and national units with Punjab AAP MLAs demanding that the state unit ought to have immunity.
Kejriwal's apology to a SAD leader for accusing him of drugs trade pushed the party's Punjab unit into a crisis as the state leadership contemplated breaking away and forming a separate unit, saying the "meek surrender" was painful and very unfortunate.
