The party has also confirmed that "Kejriwal will live with his family in the New Delhi constituency represented by him in the Delhi Assembly."
Kejriwal's resignation and successor
Kejriwal stepped down as Delhi Chief Minister on September 17, naming Delhi minister Atishi as his successor. After his resignation, he was given a 15-day notice to vacate the official residence at 6, Flagstaff Road bungalow. The party had earlier asked the Central Government to provide an official residence for Kejriwal, considering he's the head of a national party.
