Tensions are rising between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Congress party in Delhi. The AAP has accused the Congress of working in concert with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), alleging they are attempting to undermine AAP’s initiatives and mislead the public. The conflict stems from allegations made by AAP leader Atishi, who claimed that the Congress party is receiving financial support from the BJP. Atishi asserted that this alleged alliance is aimed at weakening the AAP’s position. Responding to Atishi’s accusations, Congress leader Alka Lamba refuted the allegations, calling them “low thinking” on the part of both the Chief Minister of Delhi and the AAP. “No Congressman is going to take money from the BJP. Anyone can check my family background. It’s nothing but a foolish talk. God give them sense,” Lamba stated.Claims of Fraudulent Schemes Spark Controversy
Adding fuel to the fire, the delhi Youth Congress has lodged a formal complaint against AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal, accusing the party of promoting “non-existent” schemes and potentially engaging in fraudulent practices. The complaint alleges that AAP MLAs and MCD councillors have been collecting sensitive personal information from Delhi residents, including Voter ID numbers and phone numbers, through an online registration process that requires OTP verification. Though, the complaint further claims that the Women and Child Progress (WCD) Department has publicly stated that no such scheme is being implemented.This, the Youth Congress argues, establishes that AAP has been engaging in misleading practices and violating the trust of delhi’s citizens.## Archyde Interview: Delhi Elections Heating Up
**Host:** welcome back to Archyde Tonight. Tensions are simmering between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Congress party ahead of the Delhi elections, with gravelly accusations being thrown around. Joining us tonight to unpack this political drama is political analyst and commentator, Dr. Priya Sharma. Welcome to the show, dr. Sharma.
**Dr. Sharma:** Thank you for having me.
**Host:** Let’s dive right in. We’ve seen sharp criticism from AAP Chief minister Atishi, accusing the Congress of colluding with the BJP to ensure a BJP victory in Delhi. What do you make of these allegations?
**Dr. Sharma:** These are serious accusations, and they reflect the deep animosity that has developed between these two parties. While concrete evidence of a formal pact between Congress and BJP is yet to be seen [Interpretation of provided text], the AAP’s claims are rooted in past context. The Congress party’s support for AAP in 2013 ultimately benefited the BJP, leading to their subsequent dominance in Delhi. This history adds fuel to the AAP’s fire.
**Host:** Congress leader Ajay Maken went a step further, stating that supporting AAP in 2013 was a “mistake” that needs to be rectified. This has further inflamed the situation.
**Dr.Sharma:** this statement by Maken suggests a significant shift in Congress strategy. Recognizing their declining presence in Delhi politics, they seem to be trying to distance themselves from the AAP and appeal to a more conservative voter base, hoping to regain lost ground.
**Host:** This back-and-forth has escalated to the point where AAP is threatening to approach other INDIA bloc allies to oust Congress from the alliance if they don’t take action against Maken for his statements.
**Dr. Sharma:** This is a dangerous game. The INDIA bloc was formed to challenge the BJP’s dominance nationally. Publicly airing their differences and threatening expulsion could weaken the alliance and ultimately benefit the BJP.
**host:** The Samajwadi Party (SP) has also weighed in on this controversy. How do you see this playing out amongst these rival parties?
**Dr. Sharma:** The SP’s involvement adds another layer of complexity to this already volatile situation. They may attempt to position themselves as a unifying force within the INDIA bloc, potentially mediating between the AAP and Congress. However, their own ambitions in the Delhi elections could also complicate matters further.
**Host:** What are the potential ramifications of this feud on the upcoming Delhi elections?
**Dr. Sharma:** The AAP and Congress are fighting for the same voter base. A bitter feud could split the anti-BJP vote, inadvertently paving the way for a BJP victory. Ultimately, voters will decide if they want to prioritize unity over internal bickering.
**Host:** Engaging insights, Dr. Sharma.
Thank you for shedding light on this complex political landscape.
**Dr. Sharma:** My pleasure.
