Notably, Congress and AAP, both parties that are part of the INDIA alliance contested the 2024 Lok Sabha elections together in Delhi.
However, both the parties are contesting Delhi assembly polls separately which has led to the division of support within the alliance, as, major allies of the INDIA bloc are supporting AAP.
Apart from this, Samajwadi Party Akhilesh Yadav supremo stated that the INDIA alliance is “intact”.
“The INDIA alliance is intact. I remember when the INDIA alliance was formed, it was decided that wherever a regional party was strong, the alliance would extend support to them,” he said on January 15.
The Delhi assembly polls will be held in a single phase on February 5 and the counting of votes will take place on February 8.
