The Delhi government is trying its best to follow the ideals and visions of the country's freedom fighters, he said.
Replying to a question about the farmers' protest, he said, "It is high time the Centre agree to the demands of the farmers. There is no point in saying we'll hold talks. The farmers have fixed, routine demands which are very valid. They (the Centre) should take back the three laws now."
