'Not about Opposition but democracy', says Arvind Kejriwal as Sharad Pawar extends support to AAP

Delhi Chief Minister and AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday met Nationalist Congress Party president Sharad Pawar.

Kejriwal, who is on a two-day visit to Mumbai, was accompanied by Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann during his meeting with Pawar at Y B Chavan Centre in south Mumbai.

While speaking to mediapersons after the meeting, "Kejriwal said, its is not about the Centre or Opposition. It is about democracy of the country". He further said that if parties collectively vote against the Bill to be tabled in the parliament on Central Ordinance, and BJP fails to get it clear, it will be more like semi-final for the Narendra Modi-led NDA government.

The Centre last Friday promulgated an ordinance to create an authority for the transfer and posting of Group-A officers in Delhi, with the AAP government calling the move a deception with the Supreme Court verdict on control of services.
