They expelled me to gag other dissatisfied AAP MLAs: Binny

January 27, 2014 12:25

Hitting out at AAP for not working on its promises, expelled MLA Vinod Kumar Binny today met the Delhi Lt Governor to take up issues which have not been addressed by the Kejriwal government and demand action against controversial Law Minister Somnath Bharti.

The Lakshmi Nagar MLA also claimed that the decision to expel him was taken to gag other dissatisfied party MLAs.

Binny, who met Lt Governor Najeeb Jung to discuss issues which he claimed were not addressed by the AAP government and demand strict action against Bharti, said he has been given an assurance that law will take its own course.

"We demanded that action be taken in Somnath-African woman case. The Law Minister assaulted and misbehaved with African women during the midnight raid. The LG has assured me that law is equal for everyone and let law take its course," he told reporters after meeting the LG.

Binny, who is set to hold a dharna against the AAP government at Jantar Mantar, claimed that "The decision to expel me was taken to gag other party MLAs dissatisfied by the party leadership."
