A day after Gujarat Congress working president Hardik Patel hit out at the party leadership alleging that he was being harassed and sidelined, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Friday invited him to join the party.
AAP’s Gujarat president Gopal Italia on Friday invited Mr. Patel and Khodaldham Trust president Naresh Patel to join the AAP, saying that the party was better placed to take on the BJP in the State.
He said that the AAP was a “like-minded” party for both Mr. Hardik and Mr. Naresh, who want to take on the BJP in the Assembly election.
