Inspired by the referendum in Greece, Kejriwal is now mooting for a referendum on the full statehood for Delhi. Kejriwal who is known for his nautangi is now planning for a confrontation with the Central government. The AAP government was in the news for all the wrong reasons since it has come to power. The inability to govern has prompted AAP to turn into nautangi to divert the attention of the electorates.

AAP chief has reportedly written a letter to the Delhi's Urban Development Department to explore whether a Greece-style referendum can be held in the capital on the issue of full statehood.

"Referendum for statehood is necessary," AAP leader Ashish Khaitan said in the national media.

“The government is keen on having the Election Commission conduct the referendum as it will carry more weight. The Law department has also been asked to discuss the legal issues,” a senior official said. “In case that option is not available, the government is ready to conduct it on its own,” he added.
Congress leader Ajay Maken said, "The entire idea is against the constitution. Statehood idea is a very dangerous idea Kejriwal ji has given this idea is not only anti-constitutional but also anti-national."
