As the counting continues and the BJP is poised to form the government in Delhi, social activist Anna Hazare flayed the AAP for being ''focussed on liquor and money''.
Aam Aadmi Party leader Jasmine Shah believes no political party in India's history has ever received a mandate as significant as the one his party secured in the 2015 Delhi Assembly elections.
Two civil society movements in the last quarter of a century shook the conscience of the nation.
The social activist, who once spearheaded a campaign against corruption along with Kejriwal, nevertheless added that he was pained by the development.
Earlier in the day, Hazare slammed Kejriwal saying that power induced intoxication had made him deviate from the ideology and ideals of the movement that led to the creation of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
Justice PC Ghose certainly has all the right credentials but can there be any ducking of the question if the “system” will enable him to deliver what he might seek to achieve.
Ghose, who is currently the a member of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), was also a former judge of the Calcutta High Court and former chief justice of the Andhra Pradesh High Court.
The 81-year-old social activist was on an indefinite fast since January 30 over his demands for the formation of Lokpal at the Centre and Lokayuktas in the states.
He said the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi "is only misleading the people of the country and leading the country to autocracy" and added that the BJP-led Maharashtra government was speaking "lies" over the past four years.
The 81-year-old was awarded the third-highest civilian honour of the country in 1992.
