Differences between Team Anna and Aam Aadmi Party burst out in the open on Friday with Anna Hazare asking an AAP leader to keep away from his fasting site after he indulged in a spat with former Army Chief Gen V K Singh.
The public snub by Hazare came when Gopal Rai interrupted Singh’s speech.
Reacting to the snub, the AAP called back Rai from the fast site and he left the Ralegan Siddhi promptly. He said he was complying with the orders of Hazare, who was like a father figure to him, and he would continue his fast at his home in Delhi.
It all began with the former Army Chief making an apparent attack on Arvind Kejriwal and AAP. “We should not split and form different groups in our fight against corruption for personal gains,” he said.
