"Yoga teachers have said they will continue to take classes, I have got calls for donation from across the country. I want to announce that the yoga classes will not stop. I am ready to even beg with a bowl at every doorstep to help this scheme continue," he said.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today announced that the free yoga classes being held by his government will not stop, while asserting that he will not let any work stop despite alleged obstruction by the Lt Governor and the BJP.
Addressing a press conference, Mr Kejriwal also showed the file of 'Dilli Ki Yogshala' scheme and said his deputy Manish Sisodia had signed it on October 26 and it would have been sent to the Lieutenant Governor the same day or the next day.
Mr Sisodia had said that the scheme would be discontinued from Tuesday since no decision had been taken by Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena on its continuation, in what could trigger a fresh confrontation between the AAP government and the Lt Governor.
Sources in the government had claimed on Monday that the Lt Governor has not approved the extension of the scheme after October 31.
