What to say on Aam Aadmi Party and Congress?
Aam Aadmi Party and Congress are contesting elections separately in Delhi. On this he said, “There was an alliance between Congress and Aam Aadmi Party in the Lok Sabha elections in Delhi. Both the parties accuse each other of not helping each other. That is why Aam Aadmi Party had earlier announced that we will contest the elections alone. Similarly, the Congress Party is also contesting the elections alone. I feel that the Aam Aadmi Party will get no benefit from their support. It is not so in India at all. There is division in the alliance.”
Congress left alone in Delhi?
Actually, Ramdas Athawale is pointing towards TMC and SP. Mamata Banerjee’s party TMC and Akhilesh Yadav’s SP have announced their support to Arvind Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party in the Delhi elections. Meanwhile, Congress’s ally in Mahavikas Aghadi in Maharashtra, Uddhav Thackeray’s party Shiv Sena UBT has said that Aam Aadmi Party can win in Delhi. All three parties, SP, TMC and Shiv Sena, UBT, are part of the India Alliance at the national level. But due to his stand regarding Delhi elections, it is being said that Congress has fallen alone.
