Aam Aadmi Party MLA Umesh Makwana from Botad seat also said that when no Aam Aadmi Party in Gujarat was even known, he left the ruling BJP and joined it. Umesh Makwana said that we seem to be deviating from the principles of the constitution maker BR Ambedkar. He said that for this reason, he has resigned from all posts of Aam Aadmi Party. Umesh Makwana said that the Aam Aadmi Party is getting away from the basic principles. The MLA from Botad said that the Aam Aadmi Party is now moving forward by ignoring Dalit and backward society like BJP. Umesh Makwana said that he will continue to work as a worker and will continue to remain MLAs.
Gopal Italia (most right) has won the Visavadar assembly seat in Gujarat on the Aam Aadmi Party ticket.
Umesh Makwana was given the post of whip in the Gujarat Assembly by the Aam Aadmi Party. It is believed that Gopal Italia will be given an important role by winning from Visavadar seat and reaching Gujarat Assembly. Because of this, Umesh Makwana has left all the posts from the Aam Aadmi Party. At the same time, while talking to the news channel Aaj Tak in this case, Umesh Makwana has also alleged that his opinion was not known in all the important decisions. The Aam Aadmi Party did not involve him even in the decision. He has categorically denied going back to BJP. Now it has to be seen whether the Aam Aadmi Party leadership celebrates Umesh Makwana or keeps silence on this issue.
