New Delhi: AAP MLA Alka Lamba, who is dissatisfied with the party’s behaviour and attitude towards her, said she skipped the roadshow of party chief and Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal in Chandni Chowk on Wednesday as she was “insulted” by her party.

In a tweet, Ms Lamba vented her anger and claimed she was asked to walk behind Mr Kejriwal’s car while other MLAs were with him in the car.

“AAP candidate Pankaj (Gupta) ji invited me for the CM’s roadshow. I was ready. Then another message was sent that I would not be present with Kejriwal in his car but would have to walk behind his car while other MLAs would be present with him. I cannot stand this and I decided not to participate in the roadshow,” she said in a tweet.

Mr Kejriwal held the roadshow in Chandni Chowk on Tuesday with AAP candidate (Chandni Chowk) Pankaj Gupta. It saw the participation of a large number of supporters.

Incidentally, Ms Lamba has been at odds with AAP for quite sometime now.
