AAP, Congress join hands in Delhi for Lok Sabha elections
The Sunday Guardian
|February 25, 2024
AAP will contest from four seats, while the Congress from three.
The I.N.D.I. Alliance took a big step forward in the direction of seat-sharing in Delhi, with the AAP and the Congress agreeing to field common or single candidates against BJP nominees on all seven seats. The AAP will field the alliance's common candidates on four seats while the Congress will contest three. At present, all seven LS seats are held by the BJP.
The AAP-Congress seatsharing deal announced on Saturday puts to rest the rumors that both the parties were looking to go it alone in the upcoming elections due to friction over seat division.
Analysts say the deal may impact the outcome on the seven seats only if voters of these parties transfer their votes to the other. In 2019, the BJP had got 56.86% of votes in Delhi, the Congress got 22.51%, and the AAP got 18%.
According to the seat-sharing deal, the AAP will contest New Delhi, West Delhi, South Delhi, and East Delhi, while the Congress will contest the remaining three: Chandni Chowk, North East, and North West.
