No Alliance with AAP for Lok Sabha Election: Rahul Gandhi

Congress president Rahul Gandhi has stated that Congress will not have any alliance with Delhi chief minister (CM) Arvind Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in the upcoming Lok Sabha election.

While Congress will have alliances with local parties in other states to defeat Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP), the Delhi Congress leaders have decided to stay away from AAP.

It is learnt that AAP was offering just 2 seats out of 7 to Congress while AAP is fast losing clout among the voters because of its bad governance in Delhi.

Today, Delhi has become a virtual hell under Kejriwal’s rule. Most people believe that in 4 years, Kejriwal and AAP have caused such a damage to Delhi that now it will take it almost 40 years to recover from the ruins.

Now Delhi is among the most polluted and the dirtiest cities of the world and corruption is rampant in every street of Delhi while Kejriwal government never tried to control it.

Similarly, the education standards – particularly in Delhi schools – are going from bad to worse while Kejriwal has no interest in improving the quality of education. Rather, Kejriwal and his party colleagues are making false claims about Delhi school education.

As AAP is expected to get defeated in Delhi, Kejriwal is desperate to join hands with Congress. “At a time when the whole country wants to defeat BJP, Cong is helping BJP by splitting anti-BJP vote. Rumors are that Congress has some secret understanding with BJP. Delhi is ready to fight against Cong-BJP alliance. People will defeat this unholy alliance,” Kejriwal tweeted.

Currently, veteran politician Sheila Dikshit – as the president of the Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee – is trying to revive the party in Delhi. She plans to win all the 7 Delhi Lok Sabha seats, which are currently held by BJP headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Earlier, Ms. Dikshit was Delhi CM for a period of 15 years – from 1998 to 2013.
