My morale has increased 100 times, says Arvind Kejriwal after walking out from Tihar Jail
Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal on Friday walked out of the Tihar Jail in New Delhi amid cheering party workers who braved heavy rains to catch a glimpse of their chief.
"I have faced massive problems in my life. I was always a truthful person and god was always by my side," he said while addressing his party workers after leaving the prison.
"They tried to destroy my morale by putting in inside jail. But my morale has not grown 100 times," he said.

The Supreme Court on Friday granted bail to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation in connection with the excise policy case, media reports said.
The top court has applied conditions on his bail. Kejriwal has been barred from entering into the Chief Minister's office and the state secretariat. He won't be able to sign off government files unless his consent is passed by the Lieutenent Governor.
The Chief Minister won't be able to give any public statement on the case and will have to cooperate with the probe. He has been asked to pay Rs. 10 lakh as a bond amount.
Kejriwal was arrested by the CBI in June when he was already in Tihar Jail in connection with the same case.
The Aam Aadmi Party supremo has been in jail since March 21 when he was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate over money laundering allegations while framing the Delhi liquor policy for 2021-22, which was later scrapped after the Lieutenant Governor raised red flags.
He was arrested by the CBI on June 26.
The ED has alleged the money Kejriwal got from the liquor sellers was used to fund the party's campaign in Goa since he is the convenor of the AAP.
Kejriwal was given an interim bail in May for a brief period until June 2, 2024 for campaigning in the Lok Sabha polls.
He went back to the jail on June 2, 2024 the day next to the last phase poll date.
