The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Sunday slammed the Congress for not standing by it on the issue of Manish Sisodia's arrest, and alleged that both the grand old party and the BJP want all other political parties to cease to exist.
The Congress never stands by the Opposition and engages in a war of words with the BJP merely to "fool" the country, AAP chief spokesperson Saurabh Bharadwaj charged at a press conference.
Saurabh Bharadwaj was replying to a question whether the Congress not joining the leaders of the nine opposition parties in writing a joint letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the alleged misuse of central agencies was an indication that the grand old party and the AAP would never be together under a united opposition umbrella.
"If you look at the history, you will find the Congress has never stood by the Opposition. Whenever it comes to raising voice on national issues, the Congress goes missing. They have gone missing today as well," Saurabh Bharadwaj charged.
