Chandigarh Mayor Elections: BJP Wins Mayor Post, AAP Alleges Congress-BJP Alliance

In the recently concluded Chandigarh Mayor elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured the Mayor post, while the Congress won both the Senior Deputy Mayor and Deputy Mayor positions. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has reacted sharply, accusing Congress of secretly collaborating with BJP.

AAP’s Allegations Against Congress

AAP leader Anurag Dhanda expressed disappointment, claiming that Congress and BJP have a “secret camaraderie” that has now become public.

🔹 “The secretive camaraderie between Congress and BJP, which was happening in Delhi, has now become public in the Chandigarh Mayor elections,” said Dhanda.

🔹 He alleged that the election outcome was a “friends-with-benefits” arrangement, where Congress strategically helped BJP.

🔹 “Now, there is no doubt that Congress is contesting elections in Delhi at BJP’s behest to mislead voters,” he added.

Kejriwal’s Attack on Congress Ahead of Delhi Polls

With the Delhi Assembly elections approaching, AAP’s national convenor Arvind Kejriwal launched a scathing attack on Congress, alleging that the party is helping BJP by fielding weak candidates.

🔹 “Congress is not contesting elections in Delhi to win but to ensure AAP loses,” Kejriwal said in a video address.

🔹 He claimed that Congress “threw away” the Haryana elections due to internal conflicts, despite having a strong chance of winning.

🔹 Kejriwal also appealed to Congress supporters to vote for AAP, warning that a BJP victory in Delhi would mean the end of welfare schemes such as free electricity, mohalla clinics, and free bus rides for women.

Political Impact on Delhi Elections

With Congress and AAP both part of the INDIA bloc, this open war of words ahead of the Delhi Assembly polls indicates a widening rift in opposition unity. While Congress has yet to respond, the allegations of a Congress-BJP nexus could significantly influence voter sentiments.
