AAP's Ashish Khetan resigns as vice-chairman of Delhi Dialogue and Development Commission, wants to practice law

New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and vice chairman of the Delhi Dialogue and Development Commission (DDC) Ashish Khetan has resigned from the post, saying he now wanted to practise law. [caption id=“attachment_1429491” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]Ashish Khetan. Image courtesy: Gulail.com Ashish Khetan. Image courtesy: Gulail.com[/caption] Khetan, a journalist-turned-politician and a trusted aide of chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, was appointed the vice-chairman of the DDC, an advisory body of the AAP government, three years ago. The DDC is headed by Kejriwal. “I have resigned as VC, DDC, with effect from 16 April. During the past three years, I had a unique opportunity to shape public policy & bring about reform and change in governance. I am grateful to Arvind Kejriwal, the Hon’ble CM, for giving me this wonderful opportunity,” Khetan wrote on Twitter. “I am joining the legal profession and enrolling with the Bar at Delhi, which actually necessitated my resignation from the DDC. Bar Council Rules prohibit practicing advocates from any kind of private or government employment,” he said in another tweet. Khetan said that besides pursuing routine cases, he would take up legal causes in the larger public interest.
