Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today accused the BJP of colluding with suspended member Kapil Mishra+ to try to “finish AAP”, to “get it derecognised” and to “tarnish (AAP chief) Arvind Kejriwal’s name.”

“BJP, stop hiding behind Kapil Mishra to tarnish Arvind Kejriwal’s name. Stop attacking from behind Mishra. You want to fight with AAP? Come in front and fight, don’t wave around sheets of paper that have no proof,” said AAP leader Sanjay Singh, soon after Mishra called a press conference this morning.

“For almost three years the BJP has been talking about Rs 2 crores, questionable donations, and now Kapil Mishra says the same things the BJP has been saying. Such a powerful Central government has not been able to prove this supposed Rs 2 crore donation. The BJP doesn’t have a leg to stand on,” accused AAP leader Sanjay Singh.

Earlier Mishra alleged that Kejriwal and those close to him hid donations and used 16 shell companies to launder money. Exactly a week ago, Mishra alleged he witnessed the Delhi chief minister accept Rs 2 crore in a questionable transaction+ .

Toward the end of Mishra’s press conference, Mishra displayed two cheques made out to AAP he claimed were dodgy.

Responding the cheque matter Sanjay Singh told sarcastically, “I can bring random cheques and show you too. I can make one out to the BJP for good measure. What is this? Who wrote the check and gave it to whom? And he stands there displaying these checks making wild allegations. His antics have made this a comedy circus.”
