New Delhi, July 18 (IBNS): Speaking on the issue of advertisements in his latest venture 'Talk to AK', Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said that contrary to the prevalent facts, his government has not spent Rs 526 crores but Rs 75 crores only.

Kejriwal also took pot shots at RSS and said that the rumour was spread by the right wing unit.

"RSS is peerless as far as distortion of facts are concerned," he said and added, "They started this thing and would continue with it, slowly people started believing it. The fact is, we have spent only Rs 75 crores, which is not too much."

The Delhi CM also confirmed that the money used was for the entire government and not for any particular department.
