With the Delhi Assembly elections slated to be held early next year, Delhi Congress President Devender Yadav on Tuesday welcomed senior AAP leaders to the party and said that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal sold rosy dreams to young people only to disappoint them with unfulfilled promises
Yadav welcomed many senior leaders of the AAP from Rajinder Nagar, Moti Nagar and Tilak Nagar to the Congress fold by offering them the party scarfs at the state party office. Welcoming the leaders, Devender Yadav said, “AAP, which took birth under the India Against Corruption banner, had sold big dreams, including clean and transparent politics, uplift of the common people, backward classes and the underprivileged.”
“Many young people, holding high positions and cushy jobs, left them to join the AAP, believing that it will be a new kind of party, but they all soon got disillusioned as after securing power, the Arvind Kejriwal Government turned out to be the most corrupt and opaque, forgetting all the rosy dreams it had sold to the people,” he added.
The AAP leaders who joined Congress included Founder Member and Gujarat co-incharge Amar Pal Singh. Other leaders who joined were Advocate Deepak Raj Singh, Vikas Saini, Advocate Harsh Hardy, Davneet Kaur, Shiven Nayyar, Nand kishore bokolia, Vikram Singh, Darshan Singh, Rashid Ali Qureshi, Ikram Khan, Mohd. Aalam and Shamim Khan.
