New Delhi, The
AAP on Saturday drew flak and ridicule over the internal turmoil from rival
parties which asked it to put its house in order and deliver on the promises
made to people of Delhi without wasting the opportunity with its “immature” politics.
Terming
the continued tussle within Aam Admi Party (AAP) as a “struggle for power” and
“opportunism”, the BJP said Delhi will not see any progress in such a situation
and those who were elected to power will have to answer public for the same.
Congress
said the “laboratory of AAP experiment is on fire” and accused AAP chief and
chief minister Arvind Kejriwal of demeaning his party and the political class.
Taking
a dig at AAP, former Jammu & Kashmir chief minister and National Conference
leader Omar Abdullah said it was becoming more like “older parties”.
The CPM
termed the ongoing tussle in AAP as an internal affair of the party but said
the rift should not affect the welfare of the people of Delhi who had voted the
party to power.
Finance
minister and senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley said that AAP should fulfill the
promises it had made to the public during Delhi assembly polls and that people
of the city had a lot of expectations when they voted for this government.
“With a
lot of expectation and high hopes, people of Delhi had chosen the government.
The promises which AAP and its leaders have made with public, they must fulfil
them,” Jaitley told reporters in Varanasi. “They should not let this historical
opportunity go waste just because of their immature politics.”
Nalin
Kohli, BJP’s national spokesperson, said the turmoil in AAP has to do with
fight for power. “It is a fight of opportunism,” he said. Congress spokesperson
Abhishek Manu Singhvi said it is the people of Delhi who are suffering the most
due to the AAP’s internal turmoil.
“First
AAP should set its house in order and start delivering in Delhi. That is our
concern, Delhi citizens’ concern and Delhi community’s concern. And this kind
of laundering goes on in open spectacle every day… then I think Delhi is the
biggest sufferer,” Singhvi said, adding the allegations and counter allegations
by rival factions in AAP are “extremely serious”.
Another
Congress spokesperson Sanjay Jha said, “I understand that AAP is an experiment.
But right now it so happens that the laboratory is on fire. That’s all.” “The
ongoing tussle is the internal affair of the party and they must resolve it so
that the people of Delhi don’t have to suffer,” CPM politburo member and Rajya
Sabha MP Sitaram Yechury told reporters in Jammu.(Source- www.newsroompost.com)
