“Sheila Dikshit has said a straight no to alliance. Rahul Gandhi also said not possible... Aam Aadmi Party wanted the alliance, but the Congress is not ready,” said senior AAP leader Gopal Rai.
In response to it, former Delhi CM and Delhi Congress president Sheila Dikshit said, “When did AAP ever come to us? If Arvind wants an alliance, then he should directly speak to me.”
