'AAP Lost It’s Moral Sheen, Corruption-Free Identity': Yogendra Yadav

In an interview to discuss the Delhi results, which he calls “a referendum on the Aam Aadmi Party”, Yogendra Yadav has said that AAP has “lost its moral sheen”. “It’s worn off…the idea AAP was not corrupt has simply gone,” Yadav added.

In a 30-minute interview to Karan Thapar for The Wire, Yadav, the National Convener of the Bharat Jodo Abhiyan, said AAP “was a mission but…it wasn’t changing politics, but politics was changing Aam Aadmi… over the years the mission wore off.”

Speaking about Arvind Kejriwal, Yadav said although “he has no ethical bone in his body”, he does have “a serious capacity to fight back and rebuild”.
