On Tuesday, the Aam Aadami woke up to high voltage news. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has incurred an electricity bill of about Rs 1 lakh over a two-month period.

The General Administration Department of the Delhi Government has furnished copies of the electricity bill of Kejriwal’s Civil Lines residence, in response to a RTI query filed by Vivek Garg, an advocate and RTI activist.

Clearly, with great power, comes a huge bill.

Just like anyone else, we at The Quint too tried decode how the janata ka CM managed to rake up such an exorbitant electricity bill. And slowly answers began to flow.

Radio/ TV — Bajaate Raho!

Somebody’s gotta watch the AAP’s ad depicting the middle-class Delhi household and who better than the man himself — a price he pays to promote his party in his house. And if it’s not the idiot box that he’s glued on to than it’s got to be the radio. After all, it’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Mann Ki Baat that’s left him bechain (nervous).

Washing Machine — Dho Dala

How else can one get doodh si safedi walli AAP topi (the white as milk AAP cap), if it’s not washed and cleaned daily? Let us not forget the famous muffler. Daag achche hai (stains are good, if one goes by a popular detergent ad), but not on Kejriwal’s topi.

Air Conditioner — Just Chill

With all the sparks flowing within the party, thanks to Jitender Singh Tomar and Surender Singh, Arvind Kejriwal needs all the cooling in the world. Arre bhai, to keep him thanda, thanda, cool, cool.

Kettle Class

It’s his kettle that does more work than him. Even though his cough is cured, but Kejriwal does not want to take any chance when it comes to his throat. After all, how will he give his fiery speeches?

Vacuum Cleaner — Clean and Clear

Since childhood Arvind Kejriwal suffers from bronchial issues, so it’s natural for him to get his house vacuum-cleaned every hour. Maybe it would be wiser for him to use the gobbler in his party.
