Actress Sambhavna Seth on Sunday (March 10) quit Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and called her decision to join the AAP a mistake. Seth had joined the national party in Delhi a little over a year ago.
The actress said in her post on “At the end of the day, we are human,” she said, adding that she realized her mistake.
In her post, Seth wrote, “Joined @AamAadmiParty a year ago with great enthusiasm to serve my country, but no matter how wisely you make a decision, things can still go wrong because at the end of the day, we are human. I realize my mistake and officially announce my departure from AAP.”
When Seth joined the AAP, he had said that it was her father's dream that she would serve the nation and believed joining the national party was her way of doing that. She had also thanked the senior AAP leaders for giving her the opportunity.
“Papa ka hamesha se sapna tha ki main desh ke liye kuch karun bas sahi raaste ki talaash thi jo aaj aam aadmi party ke roop me mere saamne aaya. I am very grateful to @arvindkejriwal @msisodia @SanjayAzadSln @SandeepPathak04 for giving me this opportunity. @AamAadmiParty #AAP,” she had written in her post on X.
Seth joined the AAP in January 2023 at its headquarters in Delhi in the presence of party leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh and party national general secretary and Rajya Sabha MP Sandeep Pathak.
Sambhavna Seth appeared in more than 25 Hindi films and several Bhojpuri films.
Earlier in January this year, senior AAP leader Ashok Tanwar had quit the party after expressing his displeasure over joining the Congress.
In a letter to Kejriwal, Tanwar had then written: “Considering the current political scenario and your affiliation with the Indian National Congress, my ethics do not permit me to continue as the Chairman of the Election Campaign Committee of Aam Aadmi Party Haryana.”
