We are expecting new govt in Delhi shortly: Sisodia

New Delhi, July 21 (IBNS): Senior Aam Admi Party (AAP) leader Manish Sisodia on Monday said they were expecting to have a new government in Delhi shortly.

“We have made our stand clear to the Lt Governor that we will not support any party. The Congress has also evinced the same. So whoever will now form the government, they need to show the magic number. And BJP has only 29 MLAs,” Sisodia told media persons at Raj Ghat (a memorial to Mahatma Gandhi) after emerging out of the meeting with Delhi’s Lt Governor Najeeb Jung.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal and the party’s other senior leaders Monday meet Jung at his residence demanding dissolution of Delhi Assembly and sought fresh elections in the national capital.

The AAP leader said the Lt Governor would now meet the BJP leaders to have a discussion of the same.

“We have also informed him about the ongoing horse-trading in a bid to form the government in Delhi Assembly,” Sisodia said.

Currently, Delhi assembly has been kept under suspended animation and the President Rule is in force.

The AAP supremo’s meeting with Najeeb Jung came a day after Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which is now ruling at the Centre, announced that they were ready to form the government if they are invited by the Lt Governor to contest fresh elections in Delhi.
