Tihar Jail Visit: Delhi CM's Family and Aide Express Solidarity

Arvind Kejriwal's wife and a cabinet minister visited him in Tihar jail. Kejriwal inquired about the well-being of schoolchildren and the supply of medicines to clinics, despite his own condition. Previously, his wife's request to meet him was denied but later granted. Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann is expected to visit Kejriwal on Tuesday.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's wife Sunita and cabinet minister Atishi met him in Tihar jail on Monday.

Sunita Kejriwal, whose application to meet her husband was earlier denied by the Tihar jail administration, was granted permission for the meeting on Monday, according to the AAP. After the meeting, Atishi told reporters that upon being asked about his well-being, Kejriwal instead asked if schoolchildren were getting books and whether medicines were being supplied to mohalla clinics.

On Sunday, the AAP had said that the jail authorities had denied her permission to meet the chief minister, a charge refuted by the prison authorities.

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann will meet Kejriwal on Tuesday.
