The oath taking by ministerial cabinet of AAP, in
unusual mode of public ceremony, took place on Saturday, in Ramlila Maidan of
New Delhi.
Unlike on the earlier occasion, last year, when the cabinet
of the minority government of AAP has taken oath, this time the ceremony was marked
by all fanfare, that included VIP entries and enclosures, 35 thousand seating and even more standing arrangements for visitors, blatantly contradicting and falsifying the
declarations of simplicity made by AAP leaders hitherto, in this regard. While
total expenses on the ceremony last year had come to rupees 14 lakh, they were
in crores this year. The arrangements in ceremony were aided and funded by
corporate groups like ‘Pan Parag’ that launched the beverage ‘AAP’ and served it free for all, on the occasion.
