Singer Jaspinder Narula resigns from Aam Aadmi Party

NEW DELHI: In yet another exit from the party, singer Jaspinder Narula on Tuesday resigned from AAP. Narula had joined the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP in February.

Last week, AAP's National Executive member Ashok Agarwal had quit the party, saying it has become "directionless" and functions like a private limited company.

In a letter to party's National Convener Arvind Kejriwal, Agarwal, who has been associated with the party since its founding days, said that he joined the party for strong principles, but the goals for which it was created for are getting lost.

"The movement seems to have become directionless causing doubts in the minds of people and even people like me who are today feeling the party is functioning like a private company.

On one hand, when new people are joining the newly formed outfit, some members who have been associated with the party since its inception days are quitting.

Former AAP leader Madhu Bhaduri, a former diplomat, quit the party and condemned the Khirki extension case in which Somnath Bharti, then Delhi's Law's Minister, undertook a midnight raid on Ugandan women's residence.

Another National Council member Ashwini Upadhaya had also accused the party of "parachuting" candidates and deviating from its goals.
