Former AAP councillor, climbs electricity tower in protest of selling MCD poll tickets
Miffed over being denied a ticket for the upcoming municipal polls, former AAP councillor Haseeb-ul-Hasan on Sunday climbed an electricity tower in east Delhi and alleged that the party leaders had “sold” the tickets for Rs 2 crore to 3 crore.
Naming Atishi, Durgesh Pathak and Sanjay Singh, he alleged that the senior leaders took his original documents on the pretext of fielding him in the polls and refused to hand them back to him.
“AAP leaders have taken my original documents, including my bank passbook, on the pretext of giving me a ticket but they are not returning the documents. Tomorrow is the last day to file the nominations. If anything happens to me or if I die, Durgesh Pathak and Atishi will be responsible,” Hasan said in a live video on social media from atop the tower in Gandhi Nagar.
