AAP Leaders MS Dhir, Harish Khanna join BJP

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) received a major setback, as it senior leader and former Delhi Assembly Speaker MS Dhir joined the BJP today. Maninder Singh Dhir was a MLA from Jangpura in East Delhi.

Along with Dhir, another senior AAP leader Harish Khanna, who was the MLA from Timarpur in North Delhi, too joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Dhir reposed faith in Narendra Modi’s leadership and urged other AAP colleagues to follow suit and join the BJP.

MS Dhir minced no words to declare that Arvind Kejriwal does not deserve a second chance to rule Delhi. The AAP has downplayed the development, saying as Dhir was not supposed to get the party ticket, he decided to join the BJP.
