‘Take ₹20 crore, otherwise will face Sisodia’s fate: AAP claims threats from BJP leaders

Aam Aadmi Party Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh on Wednesday alleged AAP MLAs in Delhi have received veiled threats from BJP leaders that if they don’t take ₹20 crore from the BJP and don’t quit AAP, they will face the same fate as that of Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia.

“The same model which worked on Shinde in Maharashtra failed on Sisodia, but now the BJP is targeting our MLAs,” Sanjay Singh said. In the press meet on Wednesday, four AAP MLAs including Somnath Bharti were also present.

On being threatened with ‘Sisodia’s fate’, AAP MLAs countered that the case against Manish Sisodia is false. “The BJP leaders said they are also aware but this is the tactic,” Sanjay Singh said.

Somnath Bharti said he was approached by a friendly BJP leader whom he knows for a long time. “As I resisted him, he finally got fed up and said BJP will finish the AAP government at any cost,” Somnath Bharti said.
