&ldquo;We have given additional responsibilities to our MLAs but they are working for free. Our notification says that they are not entitled to any remuneration, perks, facilities or services from the government,&rdquo; Kejriwal told reporters. &ldquo;If they are working for free, what is troubling Modiji? If all people are disqualified and made to sit at home, what will they (Centre) derive from this. Modiji hasn&rsquo;t been able to digest defeat in Delhi and that is why they are doing all this to not let us work,&rdquo; he said.
Tow the line: BJP BJP hit back at Kejriwal for questioning the credibility of the President&rsquo;s office over the refusal, and accused him of being &lsquo;obsessed&rsquo; about attacking Modi for no rhyme or reason. BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra said Kejriwal was &lsquo;frustrated&rsquo; that his flying ambition has crash-landed and asked him not to make the President&rsquo;s decision a &lsquo;political issue&rsquo;.
