AAP snubs Imam Bukhari, rejects his support
AAP leaders addressing a press conference in Delhi, outright rejected the support of Imam Bukhari who came out to give them unsolicited support.
AAP leader Ashish Khetan said the appeal is actually meant to polarize the voters on the eve of polls.
"We not only reject the offer made by Ahmed Bukhari but also want to make it very clear that AAP is here to fight against communal politics that Bukhari represents," said AAP leaders.
AAP leader Ashutosh said in the past the imam had invited the Prime Minister of Pakistan for an occasion of his son's anointment but not the prime minister of India.
"We reject this kind of politics," said AAP leaders in unison.
AAP also slammed Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley who said the people of Delhi have to choose between "governance and anarchy."
Arun Jaitley on Friday attacked the AAP and said the party's 49-day rule in Delhi was a 'nightmare'.
"AAP's 49-day government was a nightmare," Jaitley told reporters.
He said the party is more comfortable on the streets than in the offices.
Earlier, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who is facing the CBI heat over the Saradha scam, also had urged voters to back the AAP.
Various opinion polls are predicting a victory of AAP in Delhi polls.
