AAP Calls BJP A Scrap Shop. The Stock Was AAP's On Sunday
The Take
Two AAP MLAs whose seats weren't on its first 2027 list quit on Sunday. On Monday they joined the BJP in Delhi, with Kunwar Vijay Pratap Singh, whom AAP suspended last year. AAP spokesperson Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal calls the BJP a "kabaad di dukaan", a scrap shop. Until Sunday, the stock was AAP's.
The Wire
Punjab MLAs Chetan Singh Jouramajra and Harmeet Singh Pathanmajra, who quit the Aam Aadmi Party on 1 November, and Kunwar Vijay Pratap Singh, who resigned his Assembly seat, joined the BJP at its New Delhi headquarters on 2 November, PTI reported.
Why it matters
Punjab's ruling party is losing MLAs to the BJP months before the 2027 election, and is answering with insults.
