To this, Kejriwal wrote back (as per reports by IndiaToday.in) :

"Let someone of the stature and credibility of Justice Santosh Hegde (or any other person who you trust) audit the accounts of IAC, PCRF (Public Cause Research Foundation) and the Aam Aadmi Party. Justice Hedge would also for any complaints against us from the people as well. To carry out this investigation, whatever he needs from us will be provided to him. I want that Justice Hedge finish this investigation next week itself."

If no irregularities are found after investigation, it is not only my hope but the country's hope that you will come to Delhi to campaign for AAP."
