He even referred to one ‘Ghunghru Seth” of receiving notes as he got a ‘notice’.

BJP MLA Parvesh Verma, too, had accused Kejriwal of ‘selling’ Rajya Sabha seats for Rs. 100 crore.

Interestingly, founding members of Aam Aadmi Party, who are no longer associated with Aam Aadmi Party, had also been critical of this decision and implied that money had changed hands in the Rajya Sabha nomination. However, there are no such reports of defamation notices have been sent to them.

One wonders, what’s the deal?
