Arvind Kejriwal along with disabled people today marched towards the Prime Minister's residence here demanding dismissal of Law Minister Salman Khurshid and his arrest following allegations by India Against Corruption of financial irregularities in a trust run by him. The activist had sought time from the Prime Minister but his office refused to give him and the disabled people an appointment, Kejriwal said. The march was organised by Rashtriya Viklang Party and supported by Kejriwal-led India Against corruption. The march started from Janpath but was prevented by police after 100 metres at Rajpath crossing. "Khurshid has insulted the office of Law Minister. B R Ambedkar was once in this seat. A case should be registered against Khurshid and his wife.Till he is declared innocent, he should be out of the Cabinet," he said. "Both Khurshid and his wife are very powerful people. They will be able to cleanse the evidence.They can put pressure on witnesses. They should be arrested to prevent this," Kejriwal said. Kejriwal said, "Now let's make this place another Tahrir Square (centre of anti-regime protests in Egypt). Now people should take leave and join the protest. Now its a fight to finish.Prime Minister will have to meet us and accept our demands. Khurshid has to resign.He should be arrested," he said. The IAC activists are now sitting on a protest near the National Archives on Janpath.
