Senior leader of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and former minister Rajendra Pal Gautam has resigned from the party. Seemapuri MLA Rajendra Pal Gautam has also resigned from the assembly. Writing an open letter to Arvind Kejriwal, Rajendra Pal Gautam has also expressed his Mann Ki Baat in detail. He said that he will continue to respect Arvind Kejriwal in the future as well. But he expressed disappointment with the Aam Aadmi Party on some issues and announced his resignation.
Rajendra Pal Gautam said that the respect he had for Kejriwal will always remain. Denying any personal animosity towards anyone, he praised the work of the Aam Aadmi Party government in the field of school education and health and said that it is an example for everyone, but the expected results are yet to come.
‘Dalits and minorities have no stake in AAP’
Rajendra Pal Gautam alleged that Dalits, backward, tribals and minorities are not given a share in the Aam Aadmi Party. He wrote, ‘Let alone giving opportunities to Dalits, backward, tribals and minorities in the top and main leadership of the Aam Aadmi Party or in the people nominated for the Rajya Sabha, their share is not even thought about. This leadership is against the principle of equality and social justice.’
