After the results of Haryana Assembly, Congress's problems do not seem to be reducing. After the defeat in the state, it is now facing the resentment of its allies, in which the Aam Aadmi Party is the most vocal. In Haryana elections, AAP wanted an alliance with Congress in the state but Congress refused, due to which AAP could not open its account in the state. The party seems angry about this and statements of its leaders are coming continuously.
On Wednesday, the party's national spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar had said that there will be no alliance in the assembly elections in Delhi. Today Delhi Minister and AAP leader Saurabh Bhardwaj said that we have formed an alliance with Congress in the Lok Sabha. Our top leader Arvind Kejriwal also campaigned for the Congress candidates but the Congress leadership did not campaign for our candidates due to which we could not win even a single seat.
Bhardwaj said that we appealed to him many times to campaign, but his leaders said that if Ajay Maken asks, he will campaign, but till the end, Maken did not ask for campaigning, the result of which is in front of everyone.
On the defeat of Congress in Haryana elections, the AAP minister said that if the elections had been fought in alliance, the results would have been different. But Congress did not form an alliance due to its stubbornness. On not having an alliance in Haryana, he said that we were demanding only a few seats there and Samajwadi Party was demanding only one seat, but Congress did not agree to this either.
Giving the example of BJP's victory in Ahirwal region, he said that if Congress had given a seat here to Akhilesh Yadav, then a good message would have been sent to the Yadav community there, which would have benefited the India alliance.

Accusing the Congress of not giving due respect to the alliance partners, he said that after the formation of the India Alliance, when everyone asked for a discussion on seat sharing, the Congress delayed. It thought that after winning in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, it would be in a good bargaining position with its allies in terms of seats, but what happened was the opposite, Congress lost the elections.
Accusing Congress of delay in distribution of seats in the Lok Sabha elections, it was said that due to this, time was not available for election campaign, due to which all the parties had to suffer losses. All the parties of the India alliance wanted the distribution of seats but due to Congress this process got delayed. On the question of alliance in Delhi, it was said that I don't know about Delhi but at the national level we want the India alliance to continue.
