In a sharp criticism following the announcement of the new Modi government 3.0 cabinet, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Atishi expressed concerns about the treatment of coalition partners and said that they will be regarded as "second class citizens" in the government.
"Portfolio allocation shows that @narendramodi does not intend to respect his coalition partners. Both @Jduonline and @JaiTDP should be ready to be treated as second-class citizens in this government," Atishi wrote in a social media post on X.
