AAP tells Congress, BJP Won't strike deals to come to power

New Delhi: With the political deadlock continuing in Delhi, both BJP and the Congress have lashed out the Aam Admi Party saying that they are running away from governance. The Aam Admi Party has hit back saying that it will not strike deals in order to come to power. The Congress said that they are deeply disappointed by the way AAP continues to function like an NGO and given the present situations, they must rise to their responsibility. AAP though has made it clear that making Arvind Kejriwal CM is not their main objective.

This came as parties said the AAP is avoiding responsibility by taking the high moral ground by not tying up with other political parties.

"The AAP had this remarkable electoral success and I've been congratulating them on it. I've been deeply disappointed by the way in which they have run away from picking up the responsibility. I would have imagined that having undertaken this miracle they would rise to their responsibility and function as a government, I am deeply disappointed that they are running away from their responsibilities and continuing to be an NGO," said Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar.

BJP spokesperson Meenakshi Lekhi also said AAP should enter mainstream politics and take responsibility. "Mr Yogendra Yadav cannot be sitting as an umpire and blame A party and B party and not play the game himself. That cannot be permitted because if governance is all about delivery. It's high time they shoulder the responsibility and deliver it," she said.
