New Delhi: AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday once again ruled out the possibility of an alliance with the Congress for the Delhi Assembly polls.

Delhi Congress chief Devender Yadav also said that his party will go solo in the polls due in February as it is in a very strong position to win the contest.

               In a post on X, Kejriwal said the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) will contest the election on its own strength in Delhi.

               His remarks came amid media reports that the two parties are likely to have a tie-up for the polls to the 70-member Delhi Assembly.

               Yadav said the Congress will not have a tie-up with the AAP for the Delhi polls as the grand old party had to pay a heavy price for aligning with the Kejriwal-led outfit in the Lok Sabha election held earlier in the year.

               During the month-long “Delhi Nyay Yatra” organised by the Congress, the feedback he received from lakhs of people is that the party should go alone in the Assembly polls, Yadav added.

               He claimed that the AAP has lost credibility and the people’s trust after its leaders — Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia, Satyender Jain and Sanjay Singh — went to jail in connection with corruption and money-laundering cases.
