Rahul Gandhi blames Arvind Kejriwal for Congress-AAP alliance fallout
- 5 years ago
Congress president Rahul Gandhi and Aam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal got into a Twitter brawl on April 15, Monday over who’s responsible for the two parties not contesting in alliance in Delhi’s 7 Lok Sabha seats. The Congress had been keen to tie up with AAP which had ended the grand old party’s 15-year rule in the capital. Reports had said the AAP had wanted an alliance with Congress for Delhi, Punjab and Haryana but the Rahul Gandhi-led party was focused on Delhi alone.
The Congress president tweeted that the alliance in the capital would ensure BJP’s defeat from all the 7 seats. Gandhi said that the Congress is willing to contest on three seats and give four seats to AAP. Accusing Kejriwal of making U-turns, Gandhi asserted that the party’s doors are still open but the time is running out.
