But there was one friend with whom the king had the best friendship. He sold all the airports, sky, land, mines everything to him."
"He had one more friend, who misbehaved with international female athletes of the country but the king did nothing about it. Another friend ran his car over farmers, but the king did not ruin his friendship."

BJP leader Manoj Tiwari takes a jibe at Arvind Kejriwal saying, "AAP has been robbed, it's not the same...it's 'khaas aadmi party' (special man party) now."

"People of Delhi have understood all the characteristics of him being a 'khaas aadmi'. No one will believe them now," he adds.
