#AshuCries: Ashutosh cries on Aaj Tak, Slammed on Twitter
Just hours after Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal apologised for continuing his speech at the rally even after the suicide of farmer Gajendra Singh Rajput, journalist-turned-politician Ashutosh broke down on live TV and cried vigorously while talking to Megha Singh, 16-year-old daughter of the deceased.
Ashutosh, while participating on Aaj Tak Panel discussion, was replying to Megha’s questions why her father was not saved by Kejriwal and his leaders. Ashutosh not only cried bitterly, but also slammed BJP and Congress, saying they should stop politics over the issue.
“I am your guilty, Megha. I could not prevent the death of your father. I hope you are able to forgive me for your father’s death,” he said.
“I didn’t enter politics for this kind of blame game. I want to request Rajnath Singh, Ajay Maken and Sambit Patra to stop politicising the death of a farmer. They must stop all this and try to help the poor and innocent farmers,” said Ashutosh further.
The tears did not move Megha and her family members. Ashutosh was slammed on Twitter, as nobody wanted to buy his tears. Most people think that he was trying to “fool” the public and create a sympathy wave in favour of AAP.
