In a sharp critique of the Congress party, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Haryana in-charge Sushil Gupta accused the Congress of missing a crucial opportunity to form an alliance in the state, which could have altered the political landscape.

Speaking at a party meeting in Haryana called to discuss the poll results, Gupta stated that had there been a coalition in the recent elections, a joint government could have been formed, significantly limiting the BJP’s success.

According to Gupta, if AAP and Congress had contested together, the alliance could have secured up to 60 seats in the assembly, leaving the BJP with only 30. He indirectly took aim at Congress leader Bhupinder Singh Hooda, criticizing the party’s overconfidence and unwillingness to collaborate, saying, “Excessive arrogance and enthusiasm can be harmful.”
