The Aam Aadmi Party strongly condemns the attempts by BJP workers to disrupt the movement of its leaders, including national convenor Arvind Kejriwal, at Varanasi on Thursday night.
BJP workers tried to block the movement of Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh at a busy chowk in the town. They not only indulged in illegal activities, but in full public view, these BJP workers also made obscene gestures and used abusive language. All these activities have been recorded by the cameras of electronic media.
Such an attempt by the BJP workers, in a constituency from where this party’s Prime Ministerial candidate Mr Narendra Modi is contesting elections, is a clear sign of the saffron party deliberately trying to vitiate the election atmosphere.
The AAP will not be cowed down by such unacceptable behaviour of the BJP, and demands that the Election Commission should ensure that no party should be allowed to create trouble during the elections.
This is not for the first time that the BJP has tried to create hurdles in Arvind Kejriwal’s campaign. The saffron party, which runs away from a healthy debate and avoids answering questions, is deliberately trying to create tension with a view to disrupt any possibility of the election being fought on real issues.
The AAP appeals to its volunteers and sympathisers to peacefully continue their public mobilisation and not to get distracted by the nefarious tactics of the BJP and its workers.
