July 7, 2015 | By Sikh Siyasat Bureau

New Delhi: The Congress party has strongly criticised the Aam Aadmi Party for demanding a referendum for full statehood for Delhi. Congress has questioned whether the Arvind Kejriwal and the Aam Aadmi Party that if they would also support a similar referendum for Jammu and Kashmir.

“Does the Aam Aadmi Party support the demand for a referendum plebiscite in Jammu and Kashmir? How does it distinguish itself from that demand, and if it does, does it not put them in the same category as the All Party Hurriyat Conference and various other pro-Pakistani groups, who have been demanding a referendum in the Valley?” Congress leader Manish Tewari said.

Arvind Kejriwal has reportedly written to Delhi’s Urban Development Department to explore how a Greece-style referendum can be held in India’s capital on the issue of full statehood.
