Questioning the BJP’s “delay” in announcing seat-sharing arrangements in crucial States such as Bihar and Maharashtra, the Congress on Saturday asked the party if “it is being held hostage by the parties that it sought to gobble up”.
Hours after the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) made a formal announcement about its seat-sharing arrangements in Delhi, Gujarat, Goa and Haryana, Congress general secretary (organisation) K.C. Venugopal took to social media platform to take a swipe at the BJP.
“In the last week, the INDIA alliance has sealed important seat sharing in UP, MP, Delhi, Goa, Gujarat, Haryana and Chandigarh. In the coming few days, all our other discussions will also reach a positive conclusion. Meanwhile - what is happening in the NDA (National Democratic Alliance)? Are all the ill-conceived, corrupt and opportunistic M&A deals giving BJP sleepless nights?” Mr. Venugopal asked in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
