Office of profit row: Yashwant Sinha, Shatrughan Sinha back AAP, call move 'tughluqshahi' order, politics of vendetta

New Delhi: Rebel BJP leaders Yashwant Sinha and Shatrughan Sinha on Sunday backed the AAP over the disqualification of its 20 MLAs with the former calling the president’s decision a “tughluqshahi” order. In a major setback to the AAP, President Ram Nath Kovind has disqualified 20 of its MLAs in Delhi for holding offices of profit, a decision the party said showed constitutional authorities were behaving like “handmaidens of the central government”. Kovind gave his assent on Sunday to the recommendation by the Election Commission (EC). “President’s order disqualifying the 20 AAP MLAs is complete miscarriage of natural justice. No hearing, no waiting for high court’s order. It is Tughluqshahi of the worst order,” Yashwant Sinha tweeted.

President's order disqualifying the 20 AAP MLAs is complete miscarriage of natural justice. No hearing, no waiting for High Court's order. It is Tughluqshahi of the worst order.

Shatrughan Sinha said the “politics of vendetta” against the AAP will not last long.

‘AAP’ Aaye,
‘AAP’ Chhaye,
‘AAP’ hi ‘AAP’ Charcha ke Vishaye (talk of the town)!!

Ghar ghar mein,
Har khabar mein,
Toh phir kis baat ki fikar ‘AAP’ ko?

Politics of vendetta or politics of vested interests just don’t last long.
Don’t worry, be happy!
