'Have Returned To My Family': Delhi Councillor Pawan Sehrawat Who Joined BJP Returns To AAP
Pawan Sehrawat, who quit AAP, had said that he felt "suffocated" due to "corruption" in the party led by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
New Delhi: Bawana councillor Pawan Sehrawat, who had joined the BJP in February, ahead of a crucial MCD House meeting, returned to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Sunday and said it was like "coming back to my family", news agency PTI reported. AAP's MCD in-charge Durgesh Pathak, making the announcement during a press conference in Delhi, said there were "a bit of organisational differences" in between, because of which he "felt sad and had joined the BJP".
"He was in constant touch with me, and all misgivings were removed and today he has returned to the same family, with the same honour, to his seat. So, we welcome back Pawan to his family (AAP)," PTI quoted the party's MCD in-charge as saying.
"I am glad that whatever differences were there, it has been resolved. And, he rejoins the party with the same vigour to fulfil Delhi CM and AAP chief Kejriwal's resolve to make Delhi a world-class city. I visited his home also, and his wife said that now she regards him even more after his decision,” he added.
Sehrawat, who quit AAP, had said that he felt "suffocated" due to "corruption" in the party led by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
Addressing reporters, Sehrawat said, “I have returned to my family (AAP) today. And, we will take forward the work of the AAP and work shoulder-to-shoulder with CM Kejriwal.”
Quoting Pathak, the AAP tweeted, “AAP gave a big blow to BJP. BJP councillor from Bawana Pawan Sehrawat has returned to AAP. Just before the election of the Standing Committee in Feb, he had gone to BJP but his mind remained in AAP. That's why today again councillor Pawan Sehrawat has joined 'AAP'.”
AAP ने BJP को दिया बड़ा झटका‼️

Bawana से BJP पार्षद पवन सहरावत 'AAP' में वापस लौटे हैं।
Feb में Standing Committee के चुनाव से ठीक पहले BJP में चले गए थे लेकिन उनका मन AAP में ही रहा।
इसलिए आज फिर से पार्षद Pawan Sehrawat 'AAP' में शामिल हुए हैं।

Notably, the Delhi municipal elections were held on December 4 last year in which the AAP had bagged 134 of the 250 wards, emerging as a clear winner, and ending the 15-year rule of the BJP in the civic body.
