Now freebies have become historic for those also who were categorically criticising AAM AADMI PARTY ….. few days back …
You are absolutely right. Thank you MP ji
Aam admi party’s fear has made him announce such kind of concessions
how can now criticise Kejariwal for giving such incentives for free.
It seems so. Now he would lose moral ground to criticise freebies.
