The crisis was put to rest when Congres' Delhi in-charge Deepak Babariya clarified that the Congress had not discussed any such thing in their meeting with the party president.
The AAP has also been under fire from certain quarters after Arvind Kejriwal openly targeted both the BJP and the Congress in his election speeches in Chattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh. Speaking at an election rally in Satna,MP, Kejriwal had said " The people of the state have tried these two parties (Congress and BJP) for the last 75 years, but none of them provided electricity in the state. If you want power supply, vote for AAP and if you want power cut vote for these two parties".
The INDIA alliance will be holding its third meeting in Mumbai. AAP had not attended the first meeting as the Congress had not comitted its support against the National Capital Territory bill. With the Congress backing the AAP on this legislation the AAP attended the second meeting in Bengaluru on July 17-18 and is now poised to attend the third meeting in Mumbai. (ANI)
