After having
contributed massive amount of money through forfeiture of deposit in elections
so far, AAP has now filed an RTI to know how and where is the money being used
by the Election Commission.
Soon after
AAP’s candidate lost his deposit in the just concluded Patiala by-elections, it
struck their Stats Specialist Yogendra Yadav, that the party must have
contributed of lot through this fashion by now.
He
immediately did a quick internal survey and found that AAP as a party has made
tremendous contribution to the exchequer by not just losing elections but
losing them badly enough.
“We have
contributed so much in the form of deposit forfeiture in both Lok Sabha and
by-polls, that we want to know if that money is being used for welfare of
people; if any subsidies are being given through that money or not,” Yogendra
Yadav explained the reason behind filing an RTI.
“We have solid evidence that suggests that our
money is being consumed by corrupt bureaucrats and politicians of BJP,” Yadav
went on to claim.
Yadav however
argued that losing deposit was a positive sign and showed how patriotic AAP as
a party was.
“Shame on
other political parties, specifically the BJP, who have probably made the
lowest contribution towards losing deposits,” senior leader Ashutosh pointed
out, “This once again proves that Modi is a heartless autocrat who doesn’t care
for poor people.”
“We promise to work hard and continue serving
more aam aadmis through this manner, even if it requires losing more
elections,” Ashutosh further announced, amidst loud cheers from volunteers and
supporters gathered at Jantar Mantar and Twitter.
Ashutosh
further claimed that such forfeiture of deposits by AAP has led to increase in
GDP of the country and hence it was AAP that was bringing the acche din
promised by BJP.
When pointed
out by our reporter that he was being theoretically incorrect and GDP doesn’t
grow like that, he labelled him a paid agent of Modi.
Meanwhile
after filing RTI, AAP is now wondering whether it should mock BJP for its
relatively poor performance in Bihar by-polls. Sources tell Faking News that
BJP is planning to do the same and Twitter could see the mockery later today.
