Controversial leader of Aam Aadmi Party and former Law Minister of Delhi Somnath Bharti seems to be tempting another controversy. This time Bharati has targeted Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh who today announced his relationship with a TV news anchor.
Playing moral police all over again, Somnath Bharti called the relationship, “disgusting and dangerous” and further claimed that a ""characterless politician is the most dangerous weapon in the hands of enemies to the nation"
While his view that “A politician when in power gets 2 much of authority in hand, lacs of crores worth of contracts get decided by him, secret info he possesses” maybe true but Singh’s relationship is a legitimate one between two consenting adults. Moreover personal lives of politicians should remain personal. Besides when did Advocate Somnath Bharti become the judge of others personal relationships?
its disgusting n dangerous @digvijaya_28 in affair with 43 yr old married woman and TV anchor @amrritarai, how mny such politicians r there?

friends, plz understand that a politician has to live a very stricter life, morally, than an ordinary citizen for reasons as stated earlier.
