Re: Statewide and National runup to 2014 General elections

How is AAP is playing it fine in Punjab? They are pointing to the inescapable fact that central BJP sold its own in the state. An octogenarian eye doctor who is the AAP candidate in Amritsar is having a ball with the deceits of SAD against BJP. Mind you he has treated poor for free across Majha regi...

Baba RD's statement provided all the sides opposed to BJP the opening they were all looking for and Baba got caught in the middle.
