Top Leaders In Jail, Minister Quits: Is AAP Spinning Out Of Control?
More setbacks for the Aam Admi Party. A day after the Delhi High Court rejected Arvind Kejriwal's petition against his arrest, a senior leader and minister Raj Kumar Anand quit his post, saying that allegations of corruption made it untenable for him to continue. The AAP said Mr Anand was under intense pressure from the Enforcement Directorate, was scared, and had no choice. Arvind Kejriwal approached the Supreme Court today, which has not scheduled any immediate hearings on his appeal to have the charges against him be thrown out. Are things now spiraling out of control for the AAP? Is the party unravelling?
