AAP's Kumar Vishwas prefers BJP over Congress

Amethi, April 8: Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) candidate from Amethi, Kumar Vishwas has a knack of inviting trouble. Be it his controversial statements on nurses from Kerala or taking a jibe at opponent Smriti Irani, Vishwas seems to draw unwanted attention.

Recently in an interview to a Hindi news channel, Vishwas said that given a choice between 'Congress and the BJP, he would choose BJP.' He also praised the RSS for its discipline and said that it was the Congressmen who labelled RSS as communal.

During the interview he then said that five years ago he had voted for the BJP, and even said that India's first PM Jawaharlal Nehru had recognised Sangh's efforts and had in fact invited them to be a part of the Republic Day celebrations after the Indo-China war.

These comments have definitely raised an eyebrow and so far the AAP has made no comments about this. Reports also suggest that the Muslim community, after these comments, has distanced itself from Kumar and the AAP.
