After Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union President Kanhaiya Kumar made “azadi” — freedom from ignorance, poverty, corruption and so on — the focal point of his speech post his release from jail, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has decided to leverage the topic while it is still hot. He has demanded “azadi” from the “interference” of Lieutenant Governor of Delhi Najeeb Jung as well as the Centre in the functioning of his government.
