Denying rumours of joining the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), senior BJP leader Rajinder Mohan Singh Chhina on Thursday said that he was a committed soldier of the party.
Chhina also described his picture with Delhi Chief Minister and AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal and its senior leader HS Phoolka at Amritsar airport—that gave rise to rumours, as “a mere co-incidence.
“I was traveling by air from Delhi-Amritsar and Kejriwal and Phoolka were also in the same plane. After boarding down, I was coming out of the terminal when, I saw AAP leaders also emerging along with me and someone mischievously clicked the picture, without my notice,” said Chhina, one of the close confidant of Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.
He said that he was surprised when he noticed the picture going viral on the social media a day before, and he has explained to the BJP high command and State leadership that it was a mere “co-incidence”.
“AAP has no fool-proof ideology and is not working in the interests of Punjab. This party can never serve the interests of the state and their Government in Delhi has failed to perform,” said Chhina.
A day before, Chhina’s picture went viral on the social media in which he was seen with Kejriwal and Phoolka, during Deli Chief Minister’s recent visit to the holy city.
“I am committed to the party and my leaders including Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, Arun Jaitley and Vijay Sampla. Why would I leave the party to join any otherIJ” said Chhina.
