New Delhi: senior party leader Shanti Bhushan today said that the AAP chief lacks organisational skills. Bhushan, who is considered to be a mentor within AAP and has been associated with Kejriwal ever since the formation of the party, opined that though the former Delhi chief minister is intelligent, sharp and a great strategist, yet he lacks the skills needed to run an organisation.
The AAP leader criticised Kejriwal, saying that the latter lacks the ability to run the party at national level. Bhushan further said that the AAP chief should give the task of building the party to someone else.
However, despite ridiculing Kejriwal’s organisational skills, Bhushan asserted that he is the right person to be the face of AAP and should remain the main campaigner. Meanwhile, speaking to a news channel, AAP volunteer Karan Singh agreed with Bhushan’s views.
Bhushan is not the first one to question Kejriwal’s style of functioning. Earlier too, senior leaders like Yogendra Yadav, Shazia Ilmi raised their voice against the AAP chief and complained of no internal democracy within the party. Ilmi even resigned from the party after she lost the Lok Sabha elections from Ghaziabad constituency, alleging that the crucial decisions within the party were only taken by few persons.
In the General Elections, Kejriwal unsuccessfully contested against Narendra Modi from the Varanasi constituency. Not only had he lost the elections by a huge margin, his party managed to bag only four Lok Sabha seats.
