AAP leader stung, ‘caught’ taking cash

AAP’s Punjab convenor Sucha Singh Chhotepur, who recently voiced his displeasure over the distribution of tickets by the party’s central leadership, has found himself at the receiving end of a sting operation.

While a video clip purportedly shows Chhotepur accepting cash from a party worker, a separate audio file depicts him ‘admitting’ that Sangrur party MP Bhagwant Mann has a drinking problem. The audio file is available on various social media platforms, but the video clip has been kept under wraps.

Chhotepur said the video clip was made only to embarrass him, and there was nothing incriminating about it. “Earlier this month, an AAP supporter came to meet me. He was referred to me by two senior leaders. He tried to hand me a small packet, which he said contained funds for the party. Though I refused to take the money, he left it on my suitcase while leaving. I did not even know he had done that. Was the money being given for something I promised to do? Was it a quid pro quo? The answer is no.”


But, is the party collecting donations in this manner? “AAP does not have an account in Punjab,” the party leader explained. “We don’t even have a designated treasurer to collect donations and disburse money for party activities.”

Chhotepur said other leaders take adequate precautions to prevent “stings” like the one he faced. “I have been told that some Delhi leaders make sure party workers put away their mobile phones and pens before meeting them. Why should I do that? My life is an open book. Every paisa donated to the party is accounted for.”

Regarding the audio clip, Chhotepur said he did not know who the caller was. “The man, who claimed to be a party worker, said he found it difficult to justify Mann’s drinking problem during TV discussions. I told him that the party was aware of the problem, and was trying to talk to Mann about it. That’s all. It is a petty political move to embarrass me and the party,” he said.

Punjab party affairs in-charge Sanjay Singh said he was unaware of any sting operation.

@Prometheus @Juggernautjatt Is this true?
Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav also raised issue over ticket distribution in Delhi and we all saw how "selective" leaks surfaced incriminating them.

Can we expect a similar call recording of Kejriwal saying "Chhotepur ke to peechwade pe laat maar ke party se bahar phekna chahiye"?

AAP sat on manjha ban as kids died

Three people, including two toddlers, died in the national capital after their throats were slit by Chinese manjha (razor sharp kite thread) last week. The incidents could have been avoided, but the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government played politics over the dead bodies and held Lieutenant Governor (LG) Najeeb Jung responsible for the tragedies.

The truth is that in 2015, then the environment minister of Delhi, Asim Ahmed Khan, sat on the file related to banning Chinese manjha across the city for over a year. The notification to ban Chinese manjha was prepared in May 2015 by then environment secretary Sanjiv Kumar and was approved by chief secretary K K Sharma. It was sent to Khan in June, who was to forward it to the LG. Khan held back the file as his government had challenged the LG’s authority.

What can you expect from a CM who thinks 'Chinese manja' is imported from china.

Retweets by the real Kejriwal.
Now the real twist in the tale. The Chinese Manja in question is not imported from China or anywhere else. It is manufactured in India. It is called Chinese because it is cheap as compared to traditional Manja. In fact, even MoS (Independent charge), Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Nirmala Sitharaman stated in the Parliament recently that Chinese manja is a loose description given to kite threads made of nylon and it may not necessarily be imported from China. If only AAP MP Bhagwant Mann had taken a video of this proceeding instead of the security procedures, and shown it to Delhi CM and Deputy CM during the interval of a movie, they would have been saved some embarrassment. With this latest half-wit remark, IIT educated Kejriwal now is competing with UP CM Akhilesh Yadav’s IQ, who had also asked Centre to ban “import” of “Chinese” Manja, imagining that it was coming from China.

I read about it, and both the kid were poking their head out of the sunroof of their cars. How can their parents be so careless is beyond me. Sunroof is not meant to poke you head out, its not safe, Chinese Manjha or not!

@IndoCarib @Roybot @ranjeet @Nilgiri
I am glad that media is raising this issue of chinese or synthetic manjha. This thing is not new to our country. This menace was first introduced in Punjab about 10 years ago. Since then it has resulted in countless injuries & deaths of humans, animals & specially birds. Now people are using it all over India. It is still favourite among people because it can easily cut strings of other kites in sky. Despite being costlier, the string is first choice during festive and kite flying season.I would like to share some facts on hazards of his synthetic thread -
1. It's a good conductor of electricity and can even electrocute anyone who comes in contact through it with high tension electricity wires.
2. Made of nylon threads and coated with harmful chemicals like lead, this tensile string can execute harmful injuries to body. Every injury caused by this manjha is vulnerable to further infections. Two years ago my close friend lost his finger due to this manjha even after going through 2 operations.
3. It is a nuisance to pedestrians or those on two-wheelers. It can easily cut their throats.
4. It is the biggest enemy of birds. When the string of a kite is severed midway, it drops down along with the kite, and gets intertwined in the branches of trees, and tall man-made structures. Often birds get inextricably entangled in these manja strings and endup suspended from them, some at great heights, and / or get injured to various degrees, eventually dying.
Unfortunately laws in our country are not strong on sale & usage of this thread. Due to weak laws its sellers often gets bail within few hours of arrest only to earn profits again from its sale. This problem is not limited to any particular state. It is dilemma of whole country. IMO our parliament should create a tough law ASAP to ban this synthetic thread for kite flying.

Several inside conspiracies are going on in Punjab AAP against several AAP leaders. @Prometheus can analyze this news on chotepur.

Totally agree on the Chinese Manjha, it must be banned through out the country, people who are producing this must be booked.

It's the usual tactic of AAP to handle people who raise questions over tickets. Looks like AAP is preparing to sideline Chhotepur, I am expecting more such leaks in coming month against him, apparently Kejriwal is not giving time to Chhotepur for a meeting.
