Kapil Mishra says committed mistake by not listening to Bhushan, Yadav

New Delhi: Sacked Aam Aadmi Party leader Kapil Mishra today said that he made a mistake by not paying heed to the concerns expressed by former party leaders Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav about growing dictatorship in the party. Firing a fresh salvo at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his close associates, Mr Mishra told mediapersons here that they have hijacked the party. Apologising to Mr Bhushan and Mr Yadav, Mr Mishra said, "I apologise to them that I did not pay heed to their concerns said and this was the biggest mistake. At the behest of Arvind Kejeiwal, I have said wrong things about them".

He also disclosed the Russia trip of two party leaders -- Sanjay Singh and Ashutosh -- and urged party workers to raise their voices against rising corruption in AAP. The sacked AAP leader alleged that a person named Sheetal Singh had facilitated Ashutosh and Sanjay Singh's Russia visit. Alleging that Mr Kejriwal was protecting Sheetal Singh, Mr Mishra asked the Delhi CM whether he knew that Sheetal Singh handled a business of high security registration plates. Mr Mishra said that there was a Rs 400 crore high security number plate scam and Sheetal Singh was a partner in many companies associated with it. (UNI)
