The June 23 mega-meeting of the opposition parties in Patna, which was organised by the chief minister of Bihar, Nitish Kumar, was attended by AAP leader and Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha, and AAP Sanjay Singh. The AAP leaders left the meeting before the joint statement was made and left for Delhi via plane after noon.
If the Congress does not back AAP on the Delhi Ordinance issue, any alliance with the Congress will be exceedingly tough, according to a statement released by AAP from Delhi.
Rahul Gandhi informed Kejriwal that there was a mechanism to discuss the ordinance while Kejriwal spoke with Rahul Gandhi directly during the meeting, pleading with him to put aside their disagreements and move forward. At the meeting, Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee suggested that Rahul Gandhi and Arvind Kejriwal discuss their issues over tea or lunch.
According to sources, Mallikarjun Kharge refuted the AAP’s allegations at the meeting and claimed that AAP spokespeople had been making derogatory remarks about the Congress. As Priyanka Kakkar intensified her criticism, she asserted that Rahul Gandhi and the BJP had established an understanding in which the Congress would back the Delhi Ordinance.
