Chandigarh, March 26: It is a well-known fact that political parties attract a crowd at their rallies by enticing people (mostly poor) with money, gifts, food and drinks. Almost all the big parties spend lakhs of rupees to bring together a crowd of several thousands of people in any political rally. On Sunday, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) was caught on the wrong foot after a group of labourers on camera alleged that the party promised to pay each one of them Rs 350 and food to attend Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal's rally in Hisar, Haryana. The labourers said that they felt cheated after the AAP did not give them anything even after they took party in the Delhi CM's public meeting.
A Twitter user tweeted -
Each laborer promised: Rs. 350 Number of laborers: 100000 Money saved by not paying: Rs. 3.5 core
Kejriwal and AAP has been trolled on twitter for the news.
