Polls come and go but one can't afford to lose conscience: Gambhir's dig at Kejriwal

In a swipe at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over a “dirty pamphlet” against the AAP candidate from East Delhi, cricketer-turned-BJP MP Gautam Gambhir Saturday said elections come and go but one cannot afford to lose one’s conscience.

Gambhir, who defeated AAP’s Atishi Marlena from East Delhi, had been accused by AAP leaders of being involved in distribution of “obscene and derogatory” pamphlets against her during election campaign.

On Kejriwal, the BJP MP said, “I do not have any words for him if he can level such allegation just to win a seat. You can lose an election and move ahead but how can one face himself after losing his conscience.”
