Kumar Vishwas joining BJP? His party leaders say Modi uniting with Congress, Amit Shah entering AAP

New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party on Wednesday mocked news reports which stated that Kumar Vishwas is set to join the BJP. A report said Vishwas, who had contested the Lok Sabha elections on an AAP ticket from Amethi against Rahul Gandhi and Smriti Irani, is keen on contesting from Sahibabad seat in Ghaziabad district of UP. The talks are in the advanced stage, it added. Dismissing reports of hobnobbing with BJP, Vishwas himself took to Twitter to take a jibe at ‘bhakts’.

Our AAPTARDS will now allow this joining😊🙏 https://t.co/NyGGizu3fA

AAP leader Kapil Mishra also tweeted sarcastically asking whether BJP chief Amit Shah is joining Aam Aadmi Party.

Is Amit Shah joining Aam Aadmi Party? As per some media reports he seems to be trying an appointment with @DrKumarVishwas — Kapil Mishra (@KapilMishraAAP) January 18, 2017

मेरे पास तो खबर है कि यूपी चुनाव के बाद प्रधानमंत्री जी कांग्रेस में शामिल होने जा रहे हैं. उनकी राहुल गांधी से मुलाक़ात भी हो चुकी है!! https://t.co/iEYXQGbyLh — Manish Sisodia (@msisodia) January 18, 2017

Delhi Deputy CM also ridiculed news reports saying that he had information that Narendra Modi would be joining Congress after UP polls and he had already met Rahul Gandhi. Controversial leader Vishwas has always hogged attention for being unhappy with AAP and joining other parties, a charge he has till date denied. In 2014, BJP had dismissed Vishwas' claim that a BJP member of Parliament had told him he would be made Chief Minister of Delhi if he joined the saffron party to help it form a government.
