Political parties began their blame game soon after the farmer committed suicide during AAP's rally in Delhi against the controversial land acquisition bill.
The dramatic death of Gajendra Singh, a father of three, immediately turned into a political drama, with the Aam Aadmi Party blaming Delhi Police and the BJP and the Congress attacking Kejriwal and the AAP.
AAP leaders accused the police of being mute spectators who did nothing to save a precious life and not acting in time. AAP leader also blamed Modi's BJP, saying the controversial land bill and their failure to look after farmers was the reason for the suicide.
