'Exposes dirty face of AAP': BJP's Nadda on Shaheen Bagh gunman's 2019 AAP induction

BJP National President JP Nadda on Tuesday slammed the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in the national capital after a link between the shooter who opened fire near Shaheen Bagh area on February 1 and AAP emerged. Taking to Twitter, Nadda said that people of the country and Delhi on Tuesday saw the dirty face of "Aam Aadmi Party".

'Even sold the security of the country'

JP Nadda said, "For political gains, Kejriwal and his people even sold the security of the country. Earlier, Kejriwal used to insult the army and advocate terrorists, but today, his relations with those who carry out their terrorist activities came to light."

'They threw political dice in favour of Sharjeel Imam'

In another tweet, Nadda said, "It is this Kejriwal and his party that has been saving the 'Tukde-Tukde gang, which gives statements about dividing the nation. They threw a political dice in favour of Sharjeel Imam but when Delhi police caught him, their intentions were deflated so they made an 'AAP party' worker fire a bullet".

'People of Delhi will give a befitting reply'

Nadda said he wanted to make it clear to Kejriwal that this country is bigger than any election, any government, and "this nation will not forgive those who play with its security. Kejriwal and his entire team have been exposed. The people of Delhi will give a befitting reply."

He claimed the entire country has seen "photos of Imam Hussain, the MLA and former minister of Delhi government, with a radical terrorist organisation PFI"
