New Delhi: Former IPS officer and BJP leader Kiran Bedi on Saturday backed rebel AAP leader Prashant Bhushan for accusing Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of turning the party into a high command-oriented outfit and betraying the trust of lakhs of supporters.

Bedi said the latest infighting within the AAP was a clear enough evidence of why she had left the party very early. “Why do you think I and even a few others left the group early on?” she tweeted.

Bhushan, who was dropped from the AAP’s national executive along with Yogendra Yadav last month, has written an open letter to Kejriwal, warning him that the dream of clean and principled politics could well turn into a ‘nightmare’.

Bhushan said Kejriwal had attacked him, Yadav and his father Shanti Bhushan in the national council meeting instead of giving a review of the party’s performance and the situation it was in at present.

He also accused Kejriwal of ordering the release of a carefully edited version of his speech in the national council meeting, containing various falsehoods and carefully editing out the portions showing the hooliganism of the mob. Bhushan and Yadav were expelled from the AAP’s national executive on March 28 for anti-party activities.
