The journalist turned politician, Ashutosh, one of the prominent faces of AAP in Delhi has come out with his absurd suggestion to rescue the former cabinet minister Sandeep Kumar caught in the sex scandal controversy.
Ashutosh has written on his blog that sex with the consent of the woman is not an issue. He has openly supported Kumar and compared the act of the former cabinet minister with the former Prime Minister of India, Jawahar Lal Nehru and father of nation Mahatma Gandhi.
The AAP leader has written that Nehru had physical relations with ladies and Gandhi Ji had physical relations. He further wrote that the incidents never affected the political career of Nehru.
What a non-sense idea, the former journalist has given? It’s shameful that a leader who was a journalist earlier has defended his party man by presenting wrong facts.
Ashutosh wrote that the “act” was not coerced and was of a consensual nature, there was no “wrongdoing.” The woman, Ashutosh wrote, “is not coerced” and she has not even complained to anyone after that. The woman did not file any official complaint with the police or the court. “Neither has the wife of the man expressed any divergent view on the conduct of the man.”
What Ashutosh wrote,
“It’s not a rape. Then why should this sex video be discussed at all? Why should it be made public? Why should it be linked to the character of the man and the party? Why should it create headlines? What wrong has the man done?”
Condemning Aam Aadmi Party leader Ashutosh for his blog on former cabinet minister Sandeep Minister, the Nationalist Congress Party termed it as unfortunate.
The AAP head Arvind Kejriwal should have condemned the wording of Ashutosh. However, the AAP supremo is silent on the statement of Ashutosh and his deputy Manish Sisodia told the media that Ashutosh views are personal and not related to the party.
Action has not taken against Ashutosh as he is the blue eyed boy of Kejriwal.
