Dropping clear hints about joining Aam Aadmi Party, expelled SP leader Kamal Farooqui on Sunday met Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and said ‘everybody is interested’ in joining the nascent party.
Farooqui, who was sacked by SP as its secretary in September following his controversial comment that Indian Mujahideen co-founder Yasin Bhatkal was arrested because of being a Muslim, met Kejriwal at his residence and said that he would announce his decision on joining AAP on Monday. "We met Kejriwal and congratulated him for becoming Delhi’s Chief Minister," Farooqui said after meeting the AAP chief. On being asked whether he was going to join AAP, Farooqui said that he would make his decision public on Monday. "Right now, everybody is interested to join Kejriwal. I have met Kejriwal and discussed about the manifesto," Farooqui said after the meeting. Confirming the development, AAP leader Sanjay Singh said that discussions about Farooqui joining the party were on. Singh said that there are several good people in political parties, and we appeal them to join Aam Aadmi Party.
