New Delhi: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was in for a shock when its MP Shatrughan Sinha praised Aam Aadmi Party Chief Arvind Kejriwal by calling him a ‘good man'.   He also said that AAP's prospects of winning the Delhi Assembly Polls are high.

While his comments may not go down well with his party, the veteran thespian turned politician did not stop there. Just two days ahead of the polling day, he said, "Fight in Delhi is between Kiran Bedi, who has a clean image and has been a good officer, and Arvind Kejriwal, who too has a clean image."

"Arvind Kejriwal is a good man, and AAP's prospects are bright," Sinha said, adding "Everyone is talking about AAP, newspapers are flooded with them, TV channels are discussing them, means that they are popular”, he added.

The negative campaigning that I've been observing in Delhi politics is unfortunate, we must not indulge in mud-slinging, the leader was quoted as saying.

Comparing Bedi with BJP leader Harsh Vardhan, he however said, "Harsh Vardhan would have been a better choice for Delhi CM candidate."

His comments come as a major surprise as the BJP has marked the AAP party as its chief rivals during Delhi elections.

During the past few days AAP has been getting support from unexpected corners. Even West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee urged the people of Delhi to vote for AAP.

Delhi goes to polls on February 7. Counting of votes is on February 10.
