The Delhi BJP today charged the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) with "misleading" SSC aspirants and "instigating" them to continue their protest even after their demand for a CBI enquiry into an alleged paper leak was met.
Delhi unit party chief Manoj Tiwari told reporters that the BJP government at the Centre had handled the matter "sensitively" and issued directions for the CBI enquiry but it was regrettable that the AAP was creating "confusion" among the students.
"The AAP was surprised by the fast and sensitive decision of the central government, and now they are trying to mislead the candidates and instigate them to continue their dharna," he alleged.
A large number of candidates of the Combined Graduate Level (CGL) exam were protesting at the office of the Staff Selection Commission (SSC) here demanding a CBI probe into the alleged leak in a paper held on February 17-21.
Tiwari along with the protesting candidates met Home Minister Rajnath Singh and the SSC chairman on Sunday following which a CBI inquiry was ordered by the government.
Tiwari charged the AAP government with adopting a "confrontational" style that had "stalled" development in Delhi.
"The Arvind Kejriwal-led government has been indulged in the politics of confrontation on every issue due to which development and day to day administration has come to a standstill," he alleged.
