"The shortest story a mother in Delhi or Punjab, can narrate to her child is 'Ek thi Congress (there was a Congress)'," Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann told reporters today.
Aam Aadmi Party's Bhagwant Mann took a roundhouse punch at the Congress on New Year's Day, predicting the end of the party. "The shortest story a mother in Delhi or Punjab, can narrate to her child is 'Ek thi Congress (there was a Congress)'," the Punjab Chief Minister told reporters today.
Mr Mann's swipe is seen as a blow to the Opposition bloc that is prepping to start seat-sharing talks ahead of the Lok Sabha elections due later this year.
It is being read as the Aam Aadmi Party's unwillingness to share seats with the party in Delhi and Punjab, which together account for 21 Lok Sabha seats.
