Speaking on the matter, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said, "We will apologise to people whom we have hurt. We are here to serve the people, we do not have the time to go to courts for such issues. We are here to build schools and hospitals for the welfare of people." Kapil Sibbal said, "Kejriwal Ji and Sisodia ji have accepted that the allegations they had put on me and my son in a press conference few years ago were baseless. They have apologised for the same today. He has apologised for what he did. Everything is forgotten now, we will move ahead."
