AAP reacts to Shanti Bhushan

August 13, 2014 18:24

AAP reacts to Shanti Bhushan's criticism of Arvind Kejriwal. The party said that Bhushan's criticism was misplaced and the party disagrees with his views.

In what will hit the Aam Admi Party where it hurts, founder member and senior party leader Shanti Bhushan today hit out at party chief Arvind Kejriwal saying the party lacks internal democracy. He also said Kejriwal's decision to resign as chief minister of Delhi proved very expensive for the party.

In a scathing attack, Bhushan said Kejriwal lacked the ability to manage the party at the national level. He said Kejriwal was a great campaigner but lacked organisational skills.

Differences within the AAP have been out in the open, even before the cataclysmic loss in the Lok Sabha polls. In March, two founding members publicly expressing displeasure over ticket distribution. Questions had also been raised about some controversial names finding way into the list of candidates.
