Four-time BJP MLA Harsharan Singh Balli joins AAP

Four-time BJP legislator and former minister Harsharan Singh Balli on Saturday joined the Aam Aadmi Party in the presence of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal here.

Addressing the media, Balli lauded the efforts of Kejriwal government in the field of education and health.

"I appreciate Kejriwal ji for serving Delhi as his motherland... I pray to God to bless him with all the success," the former legislator from Hari Nagar constituency said.

"I joined politics when I was around 20-years-old... politics back then was based on values. I am happy today that I am joining hands with a personality who is working hard to transform Delhi as the number one city in India and the world," he added.

A minister in the previous Madan Lal Khurana-led Delhi cabinet, Balli further said that he wanted "to contribute to Kejriwal's progressive and honest politics".

"Several people from my constituency (Hari Nagar) are joining the AAP today along with me as they share the same sentiment," he said.
