Count Delhi Congress MLAs: Mann on Bajwa’s ‘AAP MLAs exodus’ claim
AAP leader and Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has hit back at Congress leader Partap Singh Bajwa’s claim that 30 AAP leaders in Punjab are in contact with him, stating that Bajwa has been making this claim for the past three years. Mann further challenged Bajwa to count the number of Congress MLAs in Delhi, hinting that the Congress party is facing its own internal crisis.
Bajwa had claimed that the AAP leaders were in contact with him and were planning to switch to the Congress party. However, Mann dismissed the claim, saying that Bajwa had been making similar claims for the past three years, but so far, no AAP MLA had actually defected to the Congress.
“This is not the first time Bajwa is making such claims. He keeps saying 20-40 MLAs were switching to Congress. I’d ask Bajwa to count how many MLAs they have in Delhi,” Mann said in a statement.
Mann’s reaction comes at a time when the AAP is facing a strong challenge from the Congress in the upcoming Punjab Assembly elections. The Congress has been trying to gain an upper hand by making claims about AAP MLAs switching to their party.
The AAP, on the other hand, has been trying to portray itself as a strong and united party, with Mann at the helm. Mann’s reaction to Bajwa’s claim is seen as an attempt to deflect attention from the internal crisis within the party.
The Congress has been trying to capitalize on the internal squabbles within the AAP to gain an advantage in the elections. However, Mann’s reaction suggests that the AAP is not going to take the claims lying down and is ready to fight back.
The AAP has been facing internal issues, including a rift between the party’s co-founder Shanti Bhushan and its national convenor Arvind Kejriwal. However, Mann has been trying to keep the party united and focused on the elections.
The Punjab Assembly elections are due to take place in February 2024, and both the AAP and the Congress are leaving no stone unturned to win the elections. The AAP has been trying to portray itself as a corruption-free party, with Mann at the helm, while the Congress has been trying to highlight its own achievements in the state.
The Congress has been in power in Punjab for several years, and the AAP is trying to capitalize on the anti-incumbency sentiment to win the elections. However, the Congress has been trying to counter the AAP’s claims by making its own promises and highlighting its achievements in the state.
In the backdrop of these political developments, Mann’s reaction to Bajwa’s claim is seen as an attempt to deflect attention from the internal crisis within the party. By challenging Bajwa to count the number of Congress MLAs in Delhi, Mann is trying to highlight the Congress’s own internal crisis and lack of unity.
The AAP has been trying to portray itself as a strong and united party, with Mann at the helm. However, the internal squabbles within the party have been a major concern for the AAP leadership. Mann’s reaction to Bajwa’s claim suggests that the party is trying to keep a united front and focus on the elections.
In conclusion, the AAP leader and Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has hit back at Congress leader Partap Singh Bajwa’s claim that 30 AAP leaders in Punjab are in contact with him. Mann has challenged Bajwa to count the number of Congress MLAs in Delhi, hinting that the Congress party is facing its own internal crisis. The AAP is trying to portray itself as a strong and united party, with Mann at the helm, and is ready to fight back against the Congress’s claims.
