Chief Minister of Delhi Arvind Kejriwal has asked people not to vote for the Indian National Congress in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, Tribune India has reported.

This statement comes amidst speculation of a possible electoral alliance is possible in New Delhi between Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the INC.

Kejriwal also attacked seven BJP MPs from Delhi for not contributing anything to the city’s development.

Tribune quoted him as saying, “Don't vote for the Congress at all, if you vote for the Congress it will strengthen Narendra Modi. Let not your vote split and give all seven MPs to the AAP.”

He also praised his government by claiming that what they have achieved in the last three and a half, four years cannot be compared to previous governments from the past 70 years.

He claimed that when AAP came to power, the government schools were in shambles but now New Delhi is proud of these schools.

It was earlier reported that AAP and the Congress were engaged in discussions to strike an electoral alliance. The electoral partnership may not be limited to just the seven Lok Sabha seats in the national capital but could also for seats in Haryana and Punjab.
