After the AAP government sacked a minister today over an 'objectionable' CD, BJP alleged the party is troubled by internal contradictions, corruption and devaluation of its polity although it boasted of probity and transparency.
"Everyday there is some drama in AAP. The party, which boasts of probity and transparency, is troubled by internal contradiction, corruption and devaluation of its polity... AAP attacks the Prime Minister everyday. They should answer to these charges," Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said.
He also urged Delhiites to gauge what they have got after giving AAP a historic mandate.
Earlier, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal sacked Social Welfare Minister Sandeep Kumar after receiving an "objectionable" CD in which he was purportedly shown in a compromising position with a woman.
Kumar, who represents Sultanpur Majra constituency, is the second AAP minister to be sacked after Asim Ahmed Khan who was Minister for Food and Supplies.
