Two former Congress MLAs from Delhi quit party, slam alliance with AAP

Close on the heels of Arvinder Singh Lovely resigning from the post of Congress' Delhi unit chief, former party MLAs Neeraj Basoya and Naseeb Singh have quit the party in protest against the alliance with AAP.

The Congress had on April 30 appointed former MLA Devender Yadav as interim president of its Delhi unit after Lovely resigned citing the tie-up with AAP and statements of Congress candidates in the national capital, exposing the cracks in the party's Delhi unit.

In separate letters to Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge, Neeraj Basoya and Naseeb Singh, who are AICC observers for West Delhi and North West Delhi Lok Sabha seats respectively, claimed the Congress workers are "upset" and feel "humiliated" due to the alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party.
