'Delhi is best': Kejriwal responds to YouTuber Flying Beast's grumble about Gurugram power cuts

It is an undeniable fact that when offered a chance, no minister or head of an established institution would shy away from choosing their own state or place over others. Asserting the same, Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal responded to YouTuber Gaurav Taneja aka Flying Beast’s grumble on Twitter. Taneja, who runs a popular fitness channel tweeted about ‘terrible’ power-cuts in Haryana’s Gurugram. He further mentioned that they recently relocated from Delhi. The involvement of a political leader like Delhi CM has given the situation a political angle with several users taking different sides depending on their leanings.

The YouTuber captioned the post: “We have just moved to Gurugram from Delhi. The power cuts here are terrible.”
