Delhi Health Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj, on Sunday, took a fresh dig at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's "mohabbat ki dukan" pitch.
The AAP leader said, said he likes the 'dialogue' which Gandhi often repeats, "main nafrat ke bazaar me mohabbat ki dukaan khol kar baitha hoon (I have opened a shop of love in the market of hatred)".
"Sir, we believe there is a nafrat ka bazaar (market of hatred), but you should also give love there. If Opposition parties have come to you asking for love, and you say you don't have it, then it raises questions on your mohabbat ki dukaan,"
Bharadwaj, in cautionary advice to the grand old party, said, being egoistic is fine, but there's a threshold beyond which people and other parties will start feeling that the new government after regime change is high on ego.
AAP attended the big Opposition meeting hosted by Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar with a pre-condition that the Congress back it in its fight against the Centre's controversial Ordinance. The Ordinance was brought to amend the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi Act, 1991 and it circumvents the Supreme Court judgement in the Centre vs Delhi case on the control of services, according to an ANI report.
"However, if you go into what party spokespeople said against each other, then the list is long, from both sides. One has to leave that behind and move ahead," Bharadwaj said. At the big Opposition meeting, Rahul Gandhi said, "We are here with an open mind.... without any past likes and dislikes. All of us will be flexible. We will need to be together in this fight, whatever it takes."
