When Arvind Kejriwal entered politics following anti corruption movement launched by social activist Anna Hazare, he found tremendous support for his dynamic attitude and leadership qualities. He quickly hijacked the movement of Anna Hazare and launched Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). The party found tremendous support and went on to win Delhi elections and formed government subsequently.
However from then on on Kejriwal's style of functioning and his ministers involvement in various scams or indulging in high handedness tarnished the image of AAP. Many started getting disillusioned by AAP as Kejriwal started following hit and run politics.
He always used to make allegations and then when it comes to the matter of coming out proofs, he went into silent mode. Now Kejriwal government got sex tape shock. Sandeep Kumar, Minister for Child Welfare and Social Justice in Arvind Kejriwal's cabinet was found in a sex tape and similar images in numerous CDs.
Arvind Kejriwal, Delhi CM at once announced his decision to sack Sandeep Kumar on twitter.

Removing him from Cabinet wid immediate effect(2/2)
Reports are coming that Arvind Kejriwal came to know about the sex CDs one day earlier and only after the news came in media, he decided to sack the minister. Deputy CM Manish Sisodia defended Kejriwal saying "We received a CD with objectionable content. Within half an hour of receiving the CD, the minister was sacked,
Sisodia went on to add "AAP will not tolerate any allegations of corruption or impropriety... AAP works with a zero tolerance policy. Not just ministers, we have 67 MLAs. We will not tolerate such behaviour from anyone in any position in the party,"
Sandeep Kumar becomes the third minister Kejriwal dropped since he returned back to power in 2015. Earlier Asim Ahmed Khan was dropped over corruption charges and Jitender Singh Tomar over allegations of fake degree certificates.
