Aam Aadmi Party leaders have wasted valuable time in examining the CD and taking remedial measures in filing promised actions of criminal and civil defamation suit against the portal.
AAP leader Yogendra Yadav said After reviewing the content of the 14-hour-long unedited CD, party leaders said it was "a fraud and doctoring (of the CD) to malign the party and the candidates at the behest of leaders of BJP and Congress, who feel threatened of losing their ground in the election due to AAP's rising popularity".
Giving a clean chit to all its nine candidates in question, AAP leader Yogendra Yadav said the party apologises to them for putting them under suspicion for 72 hours. Yadav, along with other party leaders Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh and senior advocate Prashant Bhushan, said, AAP was proud of its candidates, who have come clean in the sting operation by portal Media Sarkar.
Yadav said,"We have gone through the entire 14-hour long CD and found many discrepancies with respect to the edited CD released to the media. We have found in the edited CD, conversations of our two candidates, who had flatly refused to help the fake reporter, were removed," .
INDIA HONEST wonders, will this self certifying verdict of AAP will be helpful to return the trust of Delhi people, when they have watched the CD and its conversation live ? More will ask, why Shazia Elmi offered to resign on the debate on the floor of Times Now, almost accepting her moral breakdown and by her culpability of the alleged crime of accepting illegal donation.
More over AAP had enough time to ascertain and clarify each individual conversation facts one by one, to the people through live debate,so that the actual details of discussion, and sting CD details could be verified by the people.
Yes, a delay in clarification till the actual date of election voting will help the AAP leaders in maintaining ambiguity and suspicion . But the million $ question is, will this confusing silence will work in favour of AAP, when thousands of supporters have lost trust and left the party now ?
