When was Arvind Kejriwal's resignation accepted?

By Vijay Kumar

DELHI Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was an Additional Commissioner in the Income Tax Department. He resigned with effect from 20.02.2006, but his resignation was not accepted for a long time. In the meantime even before his resignation was accepted, he plunged deep into Anna Hazare Movement and it was only on 20th December 2011 that his resignation was accepted with retrospective effect from 20th February 2006. Technically he was in service on 19th December 2011, if the CBEC instructions are to be followed.

But nothing could stop the AK 67.
