Cartoon controversy: AAP accuses BJP of targeting Kejriwal with objectionable content
New Delhi, Feb 2 (IBNS): The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Monday accused the Centres ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of targeting its chief Arvind Kejriwals caste in a cartoon-based ad that shows him threatening to disrupt the Republic Day parade one year and asking for a VIP pass for the next years parade.
The BJP ad used the term “upadravi (rebellious) gotra”.
“The BJP targeted my children in their ad but I kept quiet, didn't react... the BJP has been launching personal attacks on me through their ads. But today they referred to the entire Agarwal Samaj as 'Updravi',” Kejriwal said.
AAP leader Ashutosh also demanded saying that the BJP should withdraw the ad “within two hours and apologise or we will be forced to take action, will go to the EC.”
