The AAP have been knocked out of the park with a recommendation of disqualifying 20 AAP MLAs in a case of Profit. This is a major set back to the ruling party of Delhi where they had a strong support of 65 MLAs being appointed, and now this reducing to 45 MLAs.
e question in this regard is if AAP are for corruption or against corruption? If the MLAs are decided to be terminated by the President, Ram Nath Kovind it will be a major setback.
According to the policy of office of profit in Article 102 (1) (A) of the Indian constitution which bars a member of of the Indian Parliament from holding an office that would give its occupant the opportunity to gain a financial advantage or benefit. It refers to a post under central/state government which yields salaries, perks and other benefits.
