BJP's Shazia Ilmi @shaziailmi reacts to the allegations by AAP's Atishi that Gautam Gambhir had circulated an obscene pamphlet about her. Ilmi who was formerly with the AAP said, "AAP's Dirty tricks Dept at work.The same kind of filth was written about me by their trolls! Gautam Gambhir is a decent person. After using the caste card pl don't use the woman card! Atishi we can see through your tricks. Known you and your backstabbing a long time. @BJP4India"
Aam Aadmi Party candidate from East Delhi parliamentary constituency Atishi Marlena on Thursday broke down at a press conference in New Delhi accusing BJP candidate Gautam Gambhir of circulating pamphlets with derogatory and casteist remarks against her.
Gambhir, who is contesting against Atishi in the East Delhi Lok Sabha seat rubbished the allegation saying if it is proved he would quit from the election.
"They have shown how low they can stoop. Pamphlet states that 'she is a very good example of a mixed breed'," Atishi said at the press conference in which was accompanied by Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia. Sisodia accused the cricketer-turned-politician of distributing pamphlets in an attempt to defame Atishi.
