‘Operation Lotus’ has miserably failed in Delhi. A claim was made by AAP, after accusing Prime Minister Modi and the BJP of trying to dislodge its government by offering “its MLAs Rs 20 crore to join it or Rs 25 crore to get others.” On Thursday last, AAP ensured all of its 62 legislators in the 70-member Assembly were accounted for, both physically and online, at a meeting lasting minutes, at Chief Minister Kejriwal’s home.
The BJP rubbishes the claim saying the MLAs “may have got such offers from liquor mafia, they should name them…Kejriwal is trying to dodge attention on his skewed excise policy and Dy CM Sisodia under ED scanner.” The AAP demands ‘ED must probe how Delhi BJP got Rs 800 Cr to poach AAP MLAs.’ Both camps seem to be getting incoherently high amidst the liquor scandal.
After the meeting, the AAP flock even went to Rajghat to pray for the failure of ‘Operation Lotus,’ with the BJP retorting: ‘The fact AAP leaders have gone to Mahatma Gandhi’s Samadhi means they have definitely committed an act which is to be considered a sin. So, in order to purify it, the BJP workers will sprinkle Ganga Jal on the Samadhi.” Surely, the histrionics wouldn’t amuse the public.
On a serious note, the AAP has called a special session of the Assembly over the CBI, ED raids targeting its ministers and so-called “poaching” attempts by the BJP.
The AAP will have a free run here undeniably given its majoritarian rule as BJP has only eight members. Rest assured the climax will play out over a long period of time.
