New Delhi : Today, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) claimed that lthe Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) have entered into an “undeclared pre-poll” alliance in Delhi to keep the AAP out.
“The statement by Sheila Dikshit clearly shows the difference between what the country and the Congress feel,” party leader Gopal Rai said during a press conference today.
Rai also shared that earlier in the day, Delhi Congress president Sheila Dikshit’s had said that a unanimous decision to not ally with AAP in Delhi was taken during a meeting.
The meeting was attended by Congress President Rahul Gandhi along with other senior leaders of the party.
Adding that in Delhi, the BJP has lost hope of winning after five years, Rai also added, “Congress uses the same language as that of BJP… it is deliberately going against the mood of the nation. Today every Indian wants to defeat the BJP, except Congress.”
