The first tie-up between the AAP and the Congress comes at a time when the two parties are locked in hectic negotiatons on seat sharing in Delhi and Punjab.
Discussions for seat-sharing between the two INDIA bloc parties commenced on Monday and leaders of the two parties would meet again soon to chalk out modalities and finalise an arrangement.
While a section of the grand old party’s leaders in the national capital believes an alliance is a “done deal”, others say it is a question of how far the party is willing to go to accommodate the Kejriwal-led party. In Punjab, the naysayers have the upper hand at present.
