AAP Will Not Have Alliance To Work For The Country: Delhi CM Kejriwal

Mr. Kejriwal sought to make India the number one country in the world.


To ensure the public for working on their needs, Delhi Chief Minister and AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday said his party would not enter into an alliance with other outfits as it intended to partner with 130 crore people of this country.

While speaking on 'AAP and its role in 2024 Lok Sabha elections' as part of a lecture series organized to mark the golden jubilee of the Nagpur edition of Lokmat, Mr. Kejriwal also said that he did not want to defeat anyone in politics but sought to make India the number one country in the world.

Delhi CM said, "Many people ask me with whom will we do a national alliance. I do not know how to do politics. I don't understand alliances of 10 and 20 parties to defeat anyone. I don't want to defeat anyone, I want the country to win. I will only enter into an alliance with 130 crore people of the country to make India number one in the world."

Despite not naming the BJP, the Delhi chief minister said a "huge party" at present was vociferously supporting hooliganism, engineering riots, taking out welcome processions for rapists.

"The country cannot progress with this type of hooliganism. If you want hooliganism and riots you can go with them, but if you want progress, schools and hospitals you can come with me. Let us make an alliance of 130 crore common people," he added.

Taking notes from his primary focus, Mr. Kejriwal said that his party's focus was not on the 2024 Lok Sabha polls but on working for the country, adding that people like him had come after leaving their careers to serve the country.

India must become the number one country in the world as soon as possible, Mr Kejriwal said, adding that he wanted to play an important role in this quest.
