AAP's "Kidnapped" Gujarat Candidate Lashes Out At Own Party | Read

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)'s dramatic allegation that the BJP had kidnapped one of its Gujarat election candidates took a strange turn this evening as the "missing" leader lashed out at his own party in a video. Hours after AAP alleged that Kanchan Jariwala, its candidate for Surat (East), was "kidnapped" and forced at gunpoint to drop out of next month's Gujarat polls, he asserted that he had chosen not to represent a party that is "anti-national" and "anti-Gujarat". "People used to ask me during my campaign why I became a candidate of an anti-national and anti-Gujarat party. I listened to my inner voice. I withdrew my nomination without any pressure. I can't support such a party," Kanchan Jariwala said in the video.
