Chandigarh, Feb. 20 -- A day after three of its municipal councillors switched over to the BJP, the Aam Aadmi Party on Monday hit out at the party accusing it of threatening them and using unfair tactics to poach them.
The Congress, which contested the recent mayoral polls jointly with the AAP, also targeted the BJP, alleging that the entire election episode had exposed it before the public.
Three AAP councillors - Neha, Poonam and Gurcharan Kala - joined the BJP in the presence of senior party leader Vinod Tawde on Sunday.
