CHANDIGARH: Punjab Congress president Captain Amarinder Singh on Monday dismissed Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal’s muchdelayed reaction on the SYL issue as a bid to divert attention from the crisis reining in his party as a result of the major revolts and widespread corruption allegations.
Now that his party has been plunged irrevocably into a mess, with leaders, workers and volunteers quitting en masse’, Kejriwal is looking for straws to grab in order to retain some semblance of a fight in Punjab, said Amarinder.
Kejriwal’s SYL comments came on a day when four key organisational leaders joined the Congress and as many as 150 AAP volunteers quit the party over its tie-up with the corrupt Bains brothers. “Why did it take him a month to come out with a comment in support of Punjab on the SYL issue?” asked Amarinder.
