Gandhinagar: Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti(PAAS) leader Dinesh Bambhania today said here he had not resigned from PAAS. Bambhania also revealed that PAAS leader Hardik Patel had sought 30 tickets from Congress party to field his choice of candidates.

‘I haven’t resigned from PAAS. It is not someone’s private property. Photographs of 13 persons who died during quota agitation and Sardar Patel only should be on the stage. The agitation is run by those interested in personal publicity. A person can not be bigger than community. It will harm the community,’ Dinesh said apparently in reference to PAAS leader Hardik Patel.

Dinesh questioned the way Hardik is organizing brainstorming meet of PAAS at Botad.

He said, ‘those who speak like lion are behaving in the manner of cats. If Chintan shibir on December 30th is for quota issue why it should be a private affair. Why those without token are not to be allowed to enter? Why it should not be relayed live on Facebook?’

Dinesh in a press conference asked some hard hitting questions to Hardik, ‘When the families of those who died in the course of quota agitation are going to get the fund collected for them? Why in the day-time Hardik speaks about mothers and sisters and in the night he involves self in ‘aiyashi’? What is the source of property that has gathered by PAAS leader in Ahmedabad, Surat, Viramgam? Who is bearing expenses of luxurious lifestyle of Hardik and his men? Why those who were very much in foundation of this agitation are leaving it one-by-one? What is the motive of formation of new PAAS committee by Hardik? Whether the agenda of PAAS is quota or pro-Congress and anti-BJP politics in the name of unemployed youths, faremrs and EVM? At 2.00 pm on one day, Bharatsinh Solanki gave us the list of 30 candidates in reference to Hardik’s demand. Why 30 tickets were demanded without the knowledge of core committee? Why Hardik met Rahul Gandhi, Ashok Gehlot and Bharatsinh alone and why not with core committee members? Is Hardik ready to debate with me on possible way of getting quota for Patidar community?’
