A day after polling for the Delhi assembly elections, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of trying to poach several candidates, including seven incumbent legislators, by offering them ₹15 crore each, to help the BJP form government.
NEW DELHI:
AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal and party leader Sanjay Singh said that the BJP was attempting to "poach" AAP candidates. "In the last two hours, 16 of our candidates have received calls offering ₹15 crore each and ministerial positions if they switch to BJP. If they are getting more than 55 seats, why are they trying to break our candidates?" Kejriwal wrote on X.
