What do Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and former prime minister Manmohan Singh have in common? They don't take money themselves but allow others around them to do so, claims activist-lawyer and former Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Prashant Bhushan. "Arvind has Manmohan Singh syndrome," says Bhushan. The AAP leader could join hands even with Prime Minister Narendra Modi for personal gain, he adds. "Kejriwal is not interested in fighting corruption... he does not want accountability for himself" - that's what Bhushan says he learnt while working with Kejriwal before being expelled from the AAP along with Yogendra Yadav for alleged "anti-party" activities.
