Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, who announced to go on a strike over the issue of complete statehood for Delhi, has postponed his hunger strike, which he planned to start from March 1, in “view of the prevailing India-Pakistan situation”.

Kejriwal, hours after the IAF carried out the air strikes at the terror camp in Pakistan’s Balakot, tweeted the following:

In view of prevailing Indo Pak situation, I am postponing my upwas for full statehood of Delhi. We all stand as one nation today.

Kejriwal’s decision comes after India struck Jaish-e-Mohammed’s biggest camp in Pakistan early Tuesday in a major “preemptive” action killing a large number of terrorists and trainers of the Pakistan-based terror group preparing to carry out suicide attacks in this country.
