BJP on Friday accused Aam Aadmi Party of trying to ‘hijack’ Anna Hazare’s agitation on Janlokpal Bill after the activist asked <span style="border-bottom: 1px solid #0000FF !important;text-decoration:underline !important;color:#0000FF !important">AAP leader Gopal Rai to leave his village when he interrupted former army chief VK Singh’s speech at a function.
Party spokesperson Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi also ridiculed suggestions that BJP may offer support to AAP for forming government in Delhi, saying it was irrational to think so at a time when AAP is claiming that it will stop Narendra Modi from becoming prime minister.
He said BJP salutes <span style="border-bottom: 1px solid #0000FF !important;text-decoration:underline !important;color:#0000FF !important">the agitation of Hazare and condemned AAP for its attempt to ‘hijack’ his agitation.
‘The whole country is watching what they (AAP) are doing. We condemn it,’ he said.
Hazare’s rebuke of Rai came after the latter objected to former army chief Gen (retd) VK <span style="border-bottom: 1px solid #0000FF !important;text-decoration:underline !important;color:#0000FF !important">Singh’s dig at AAP. Singh had said the movement against corruption should not split and there are some who think they are bigger than Hazare, inviting strong response from Rai, who was at the venue.
Naqvi said his party was in complete support of Lokpal Bill and blamed the Congress-led government for putting the bill on the backburner.
