Making the road to Opposition unity ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha election smoother, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Sunday announced that it will attend a meeting of Opposition parties in Bengaluru on July 17 and 18.
The announcement came hours after the Congress said it will not “support” an Ordinance on control over services in Delhi passed by the Central government.
After a meeting of the Political Affairs Committee (PAC) — the highest decision-making body of the AAP — on Sunday evening, party Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha told the media, “The Congress, clearing its position, has expressed its opposition to the Ordinance. We welcome this announcement. The AAP, under the leadership of Arvind Kejriwal, will take part in the meeting of like-minded parties in Bengaluru on July 17 and 18 and present its views.”
