Taking a jibe at Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, Prime Minister Narendra Modi remarked that he could’ve built himself a ‘Sheeshmahal’ but instead he built housing for the poor.
PM Modi was speaking at the inauguration of several development projects in Delhi today when he said, “The country know that Modi never built a home for himself. But in the past 10 years, I fulfilled the dreams of the poor by constructing houses for more than 4 crore poor people”. He added, “I could also have built a ‘Sheeshmahal’ for myself but my dream was to give parka house to my countrymen”.

Kejriwal’s Sheeshmahal
