He also said that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is doing “penance” in the jail for the people of Delhi and the country.
The former deputy CM who was released on bail recently, said he got out because of the Constitution which will ensure Kejriwal’s release soon.

Recalling his 17 months imprisonment in Tihar jail, Sisodia said when he braved 52 degrees of heat in summer just with a fan in his prison cell, he used to think this was necessary for the children for whom he struggled to reform education in Delhi.
As Sisodia walked through Burari’s streets meeting and greeting locals, the AAP workers and supporters raised slogans “Manish Sisodia Aa Gaye, Kejriwal Bhi Ayenge” (Manish Sisodia is released and Kejriwal too will be out of the jail).
“The BJP leaders thought I will come out of jail crying but I walked out smiling and now they are not able to look me in the eyes,” said Sisodia who was granted bail by the Supreme Court earlier this month in excise policy cases registered by the ED and CBI.
Sisodia embarked on his ‘padyatra’ on August 16 with a footmarch in Greater Kailash constituency. He will visit all 70 Assembly constituencies in Delhi during the campaign.
