The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Thursday condemned the “sheer debauchery” let loose by Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Ministers and legislators.
“The sex tape scandal of Minister for Woman and Child Development Sandeep Kumar is one among the long line of crimes of Delhi AAP legislative party including lying, cheating, wife beating, sexual misconduct and raking up of communal tensions,” said SAD spokesmen Maheshinder Singh Grewal and Daljit Singh Cheema.
Stating that one-third of AAP MlAs in Delhi, including Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia and Assembly Speaker Ram Nivas Goyal, had criminal cases pending against them, the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) asked AAP to tell Punjabis if this was the leadership they aimed to replicate in Punjab.
“AAP has failed to maintain any account of the money collected by it in Punjab and had not even appointed a treasurer for the State unit. It is unfortunate that Punjab is being used as a money collection centre by AAP leaders of UP and Bihar who are not only robbing Punjabis of their monies but also insulting their religion and culture,” they added.
Asking Kejriwal not to hide behind the façade of victimization, the SAD leaders asked him to explain if any political opponent of AAP had “forced” his minister Sandeep Kumar to get into a compromising position with two women.
The SAD also launched a full blast offensive against AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal asking him to come clean on media reports that he had sex-tape with him for 15 days and acted only when someone from within his close circle informed him that it was about to be blown up in the media the following day.
They also accused Kejriwal of brazen hypocrisy saying that he acted merely to save his own skin from the deeds which he had himself not only allowed but even encouraged to reward men in his “dirty tricks department” and keep them happy”.
