In a dramatic turn of events, Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal announced her decision to resign from the Aam Aadmi Party on Friday, citing a divergence from the party's foundational principles under the leadership of Arvind Kejriwal.
Using social media as her platform, Maliwal detailed her journey from the RTI and Anna movements to her dedicated service in politics. She accused Kejriwal and his party of shielding individuals involved in misconduct and abandoning the party's core values.
Maliwal's resignation coincides with a spate of departures from the party, including those of notable Rajya Sabha MPs, adding to AAP's current turmoil and raising questions about its future trajectory.
