Manpreet joined party accused of big scams: AAP

AAP today criticized Manpreet Badal, who joined Congress yesterday and merged his outfit with it, saying he "shook hands" with a party which was accused of being involved in big scams.
AAP Punjab convener Sucha Singh Chottepur also rubbished Manpreet's reported claims that AAP had approached him to come into the party fold.
Manpreet, the estranged nephew of Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal, had yesterday joined Congress and merged his outfit, People's Party of Punjab, with it after meeting Rahul Gandhi in New Delhi.
"He (Manpreet Badal) has shaken hands with a party which has set records in scams like 2G and coal scam etc," Chottepur said.

He said AAP never approached Manpreet to woo him into the party fold. "As far as I know, AAP never approached Manpreet to join us. If he had approached us himself, then I do not know," he said.
