No final decision yet on AAP-Congress alliance for Haryana polls: Sources
No final decision has been taken on the alliance with the Congress for the October 5 Haryana Assembly polls yet, sources in AAP said on Sunday.The last date to file nominations is September 12.
“The talks are underway but there is no final decision yet,” said an AAP source.Earlier in the day, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha said both Congress and his party are trying to forge an alliance for the Haryana elections by keeping aside their individual aspirations.
Chadha said while the parties are yet to reach a consensus on the alliance, the talks are progressing in a “positive” direction and they are hopeful of a good outcome.
He, however, added that the AAP will not proceed with the alliance “if there is no win-win situation”.“The talks are happening in a positive atmosphere. Both parties are working towards contesting the elections together, prioritizing unity and the demands of the people of Haryana, while setting aside individual party and candidate aspirations,” he told PTI Videos.
“Ball by ball commentary cannot be done on the seat-sharing arrangement. Both the parties have desire and hope to form an alliance,” he added.
According to sources, while the AAP is demanding 10 seats, the Congress is ready to give them only seven.
