New Delhi, India (June 11, 2014): Making feel presence of Aam Aadmi Party in upper as well as lower house on June 10, AAP MP from Sangrur Bhagwant Mann made BJP leader Rajiv Partap Rudy to eat his words.
The BJP’s principal speaker on the motion of thanks for president’s address to the two houses of parliament faced the stiff resistance when Bhagwant Mann opposed to his remarks. He termed AAP a “Bhulli Bhatki Party” and Bhagwant Mann lashed out at Rudy saying that he was insulting 30 lakh of AAP supporters in Punjab, who gave votes to AAP in LS elections.
“In Punjab, we have a vote share of 24.6 percent. You mean to say that those who voted for us are lost and those who voted for you are sane and fine?”, said Mann asking Rudy to take his words back.
Reacting to another remark of Rudy that a leader made his wife a chief minister of a state, Mann said, “You also made Badal Bahu Harsimrat Kaur Badal minister leaving Brahmpura behind, who had won with the margin of over 1 lakh votes while Harsimrat won by just 19000 votes”.
Rudy relented shortly and ate his words.
