New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party launched a scathing attack on the centre ruling BJP on Monday by accusing it of “scripting” the Shaheen Bagh CAA protests.
AAP further alleged that the topmost leadership of the BJP scripted each and every step of the Shaheen Bagh protest. They decided who will speak what, who will attack whom and who is going to do the counter-attack.
It is to be noted that more than 50 people who became known for their protests against the citizenship law in Delhi, have joined the BJP.
The list of people who joined the BJP, includes social worker Shahzad Ali, gynecologist Dr Mehreen and former AAP worker Tabassum Hussain, who were among the well-known faces at Shaheen Bagh
Aam Aadmi Party Chief Spokesperson Saurabh Bharadwaj pointed out that all these things were preplanned and well scripted. He also said that in Delhi, BJP vote percentage rose from 18 per cent to 38 per cent due to Shaheen Bagh; due to this protest, BJP polarised north-east Delhi, won some seats and engineered a riot. Mr Bharadwaj said that people who raised anti-national slogans or pro-Pakistan slogans or talked about dividing India are now part of the BJP.
“BJP has betrayed their own people; Delhi Police does not tolerate farmers, doctors and others to protest for more than 3 hours, but the Shaheen Bagh Protest ran for 101 days,” he alleged.
