The Aam Aadmi Party, which made a bang for the first time in Chandigarh, has made serious allegations against the BJP. AAP’s Punjab co-in-charge Raghav Chadha said that an attempt was made to buy three of our councillors. Of these, 50 lakhs were offered to two councilors and 75 lakhs to one. This offer was made by a senior BJP leader.

Chadha said that this is BJP’s ‘Operation Kamal’ of horse trading. Which BJP has already done in Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Arunachal Pradesh.

Which will be made public later.
