He said that the BJP is afraid of the AAP and this is the reason they want to break the party.
The Motion of Confidence was passed through a voice vote of 54 AAP MLAs, who were present during the session.
The AAP chief said that none of their MLAs defected, while two were behind the bars, some unwell and some of the party’s legislators were not in the city.
The AAP has a total of 62 MLAs in the House.
He said that despite having a majority in the House, the government needed to bring the motion of confidence due to an attempt by the saffron party to topple the AAP government by trying to poach AAP MLAs.
The AAP has become the country’s third largest party after the BJP and the Congress, he said, adding the AAP had applied for its registration on November 26, 2012.
In a very short span of time the AAP has gained immense popularity and has governments in Delhi and Punjab.
The AAP convener also took a dig at those politicians who succumb to pressure and switch sides, and further said that honest ones are those who resist despite any pressure and consequences.
