On a day AAP’s Bhagwat Mann swore in as Punjab’s new chief minister after a thumping victory in the state assembly election, Haryana Minister Anil Vij took a dig the Arvind Kejriwal-led party which he said was formed bydeceivingAnna Hazare’s agitation years ago.
“The birth of Aam Aadmi Party is because of the deceit they did during Anna Hazare’s agitation in Delhi. People of Punjab have selected them, let’s see if they are able to fulfill their promises in the coming years or they fail to do so,” news agency ANI quoted Vij as saying on Wednesday.After the assembly election results, Vij had taken a swipe at the AAP, saying the party has mastered the art of selling liquor in the streets of Delhi and the people of Punjab have appreciated that as there is a huge drug trade in the state. “And this will make the situation in Punjab even worse,” Vij had said.Hazare along with Kejriwal (now Delhi chief minister) and others had started the India Against Corruption (IAC) movement in 2011. Later in November 2012, Kejriwal and his companions founded the party and fought assembly elections of Delhi.
