IS AAP HEADING TOWARDS ITS DAWN AFTER ITS RISE ?? -SHAZIA ILMI AND K GOPINATH QUIT AAP

New Delhi

With AAP Chief Arvind Kejriwal in jail,AAP key members Shazia Ilmi and K Gopinath today quit the party stating a lack of democracy within the party as a reason.

“There is lack of inner party democracy within the Aam Aadmi Party. The party which talks about ‘Swaraj’ has failed to apply it within the party,” Ilmi said at a press conference here.

“I am not for jail bharo politics. There is a need to reinvent the AAP, go beyond agitation,” Ilmi said.

Gopinath, who joined AAP in January this year, stressed that he was a great admirer of Anna Hazare and Kejriwal and continues to be so but disagreed with some of the decisions of of the AAP chief saying a head of a party cannot indulge in “shoot and scoot politics”.
