Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today said that the anti-corruption helpline received an overwhelming response and he also warned corrupt officers that they will be behind bars if they don't change.
"We have already received around 3900 phone calls. Corrupt officials should either reform or they will perish," Kejriwal warned.

"Now, with the anti-corruption helpline everyone in Delhi is a police person," said Kejriwal.
He also said that the four-digit helpline number will be operational by tomorrow and will be given to the public.
The Delhi CM also said that he and his ministers will directly interact with the public and listen to their grievances.
"Every Saturday my ministers and I will sit outside the Delhi Assembly from 9 am to 11 am and listen to public grievances," said Kejriwal.
He also said that each day of the week a minister will take public grievances related to their ministry. While some grievances will be taken up immediately, the ones that involve change of policy will take time, he said.
Meanwhile, he also said that Delhi Congress chief Arvinder Singh Lovely's request to solve the problem of power cuts in Delhi was also being looked into.
"We have asked for the data of scheduled and unscheduled power cuts across Delhi. We are looking into the issue," Kejriwal said.
Singh had shot off a letter to Kejriwal yesterday asking him to solve the problem of power cuts.
