Arvind Kejriwal Cleans Dishes at Golden Temple as Penance Monday July 18,2016

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday July 18,2016 washed dishes in the Golden Temple's community kitchen as an apology after his Aam Aadmi Party drew flak for depicting the image of the Sikh shrine with the party symbol - broom - in its 'youth manifesto'.

Arvind Kejriwal, who had arrived in the city on Sunday night for his act of penance, scrubbed utensils in the community kitchen for 45 minutes and later went to sanctum sanctorum to pay obeisance. He sat for half an hour on the marble floor outside the sanctum sanctorum to listen to religious hymns.

"I had come here for 'sewa' (voluntary religious service) to apologise if we had knowingly or unknowingly committed any mistake in our youth manifesto. I listened to the 'shabad kirtan' here that gave me immense pleasure. Now I feel peace of mind," he said.
