AAP, BJP protests 'drama', people of Delhi real victims: Rahul Gandhi

New Delhi: As the Aam Aadmi party's sit-in protest at Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal's residence continues, Congress party president Rahul Gandhi on Monday took to Twitter to call the protest a 'drama' and said that the real victims were the people of Delhi. 

Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia, Satyendar Jain, and Delhi Development Minister Gopal Rai have been camping at Anil Baijal’s waiting room since June 11, refusing to leave until the L-G makes IAS bureaucrats in the Delhi government end their “strike”.

Rahul Gandhi's tweeted saying:  Delhi CM, sitting in Dharna at LG office. BJP sitting in Dharna at CM residence. Delhi bureaucrats addressing press conferences. PM turns a blind eye to the anarchy; rather nudges chaos & disorder. People of Delhi are the victims, as this drama plays out.

This is the first time that the Congress chief has reacted to AAP's protest which began last week. 

AAP leaders accompanied by thousands of party workers on Sunday marched towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s residence on Sunday in support of their ministers’ protest.
