New Delhi [India], December 2 : Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit lashed out on Arvind Kejriwal's statement on no alliance for the Delhi assembly elections and said on Monday that Delhi's Congress would not be with a party that ruined Delhi for 10 years.
Speaking to ANI, Dikshit said " Delhi Congress had no plan of alliance, especially with AAP. When we made it clear that there wouldn't be any alliance, maybe AAP has also accepted it...now, Delhi is known for the wrong reasons... We have a responsibility that we cannot be with a party that has ruined Delhi for ten years. Delhi is known for wrong reasons because of AAP. How can we --a party that has always stood for the peole ally with a party which has been responsible for the damage done to Delhi. Congress has always stood for the people's interest."
Earlier today, Congress leader Udit Raj questioned why Arvind Kejriwal was saying that there would be no alliance after Congress's Delhi unit President Devender Yadav had already announced no alliance for the upcoming Delhi assembly elections.
Speaking to ANI, Raj said "When Congress' Delhi Unit President Devender Yadav has already said that there would be no alliance, then where does the question arise from? It means that they are afraid and want to create such an environment that Congress compromises. Otherwise when this has been clarified, then it should not happen again."
This comes in after Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday repeated that there would be no political tie-up in the national capital ahead of the upcoming Delhi assembly elections.
"There will be no alliance in Delhi (for assembly elections)," Kejriwal said while addressing a press conference.
Meanwhile, well known UPSC coach Awadh Ojha has joined AAP in presence of the party's national convenor Arvind Kejriwal and leader Manish Sisodia on Monday.
