Refutes allegations over ticket distribution

Denying the allegations of double-dealing in ticket distribution by AAP, Cheema said some people had personal and selfish agenda in politics and when their plans failed, they start a blame-game. Cheema claimed that AAP had given 80 per cent ticket to its core volunteers and it was the only party to do so. — TNS
