Delhi Assembly elections: Congress to go solo, announces no alliance with AAP

The Congress party on Friday announced its decision to contest the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections alone, ruling out any alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). Delhi Congress president Devender Yadav stated that the party will contest all 70 seats in the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections on its own. He clarified that there will be no alliance with any party for the elections. Yadav further stated that the decision regarding the Chief Ministerial candidate will be made by the



Congress Legislative Party after the elections.

Earlier this month, AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal compared the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections to a 'dharamyudh', akin to the one in the Mahabharata. "Delhi Assembly election is like a 'dharamyudh'. They have immense money and power like the Kauravas, but God and the people are with us as was the case with the Pandavas," the former CM said, in an address to district-level office bearers of the party in Chandni Chowk.
