Kejriwal 'most unimpressive' politician: Pakistan daily

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has received a mixed reaction from the media here after his interaction with Pakistani journalists, with one daily on Sunday  calling him the “most unimpressive” Indian politician while another praised him for his simplicity.

Tearing into Kejriwal, “The News” daily reported: “India’s new shooting star with dreams of another ‘India Shining’ appeared as of the country’s most unimpressive politicians but with a most impressive agenda”. It said the Aam Admi Party leader, who was wearing his “Kejriwal muffler”, was armed with a “mission of populist politics”.

Kejriwal met a visiting Pakistani media delegation in New Delhi earlier this week. Asked about bilateral relations, he said: “I have never visited Pakistan before. I have not studied India’s relations with Pakistan.”
