An audit of Arvind Kejriwal’s former official residence at 6, Flag Staff Road reveals exorbitant renovation costs of ₹33.66 crore, including ₹96 lakh curtains, ₹16 lakh silk carpets, and ₹18.88 crore spent on “superior and artistic items.” Initially estimated at ₹7.91 crore, the project’s costs ballooned, sparking outrage ahead of the 2025 Delhi elections.
PM Narendra Modi criticized the expenditure, claiming he prioritized housing for the public over personal luxury. In retaliation, Kejriwal accused Modi of double standards, referencing Modi’s ₹2,700-crore residence and a ₹10-lakh suit.
This controversy fuels heated political debates, highlighting public expenditure and governance accountability.
