AAP's MS Dhir joins BJP
New Delhi, Nov 21 (IBNS): In a major setback for the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Speaker of the last Delhi Assembly from the party MS Dhir, on Friday joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
The move came ahead of the crucial Delhi assembly polls as the former AAP MLA was denied a ticket this time.
"I was unhappy with AAP as they were given an opportunity by the people of Delhi to clean the system but they failed in their job. There is no democracy in the party," Dhir told reporters.
He was elected from south Delhi's Jangpura constituency last time.
