Amit Mahadik Hats off Mr. Arun Bhatia. Expose AAP

Arun Bhatia WHY HAVE I WOKEN UP LATE? IS IT BECAUSE I WAS REFUSED A TICKET? Please see my open letter to Kejriwal on my timeline sent long before tickets were finalized. I have mentioned that the law minister should either explain his actions or step down. I have also stated that the leaders of the movement should not run away from the media and should defend the movement. Similarly sometime back I had written to Kejriwal regarding Prashant Bhushan obtaining two govt plots in Noida but received no reply. I have always defended the movement but on all TV shows I have also stated that corrective action regarding AAP leaders should be taken. If these leaders face allegations they must answer and face the media and its questioning. To defend these people blindly without any clarifications coming from them would weaken the movement and make it no different from the political parties we criticize. If the movement has to survive, then truth and honesty must prevail and AAP leadership should not be immune from being questioned. It is because I have raised these issue that I was denied a ticket. The denial has not come as a surprise. If I had acted only to obtain a ticket I would not have written those letters and nor would I have conceded valid points to TV anchors. Nor would I have said that I was sad to see the AAP chair vacant on the TV debates. All these are recorded actions taken long before the ticket was finalized. My actions were based on truth and meant to strengthen the movement. I realized that the AAP leadership being what it was might get annoyed and refuse the ticket. But I did not silence myself to obtain the ticket. AAP made me a member of the executive committee of Maharashtra. I attended three meetings. At the third meeting in Mumbai the question of 'Chaddar' collection was raised. This means that at a function or gathering all over the city a bed sheet would be spread out on which people would then put contributions and currency notes. I immediately voiced a strong objection that this was a dangerous practice and would definitely lead to corruption. For this type of fund collection a very rigid procedure has to be followed of counting money in the presence of panchas or witnesses, sealing the bags, transporting the bags to party HQ and breaking the seals in front of witnesses, maintaining registers etc. It would not be possible to follow this procedures in thousands of places in the city and there would be no control of fund collection. It would open the door for thieves to make money and defame the movement. However my objection was not taken seriously and I was only informed that Delhi will be taking a decision. After that I stopped attending the meetings of Maharashtra committee. The truth is that the movement does not want tough guys to be included as they pose a risk and people like me might turn out to be whistle blowers who could expose the inner working of the movement.
