APP & Kejriwal.



APP & Kejriwal.

Aam Admi Party has failed the people of Delhi (AAP splits, Indian Express, 29/3). Instead of fulfilling the promises made to the citizens of Delhi, the top functionaries of the party are fighting for supremacy. Kejriwal, who tried to imitate Mahatma Gandhi with his cap, mannerisms and speaking about Swaraj and decentralization, has now become Indira Gandhi with his dictatorial behaviour. It appears that he did not allow the dissidents to put forward their point of view, and even used strong-arm tactics to browbeat his opponents. It is a betrayal of the trust of the people. Even his promises of free power and water to the poor reminds us of "Garibi Hatao" of Indira Gandhi. Marx was right when he said that history repeats itself, 'first as tragedy,then as farce'.
