AAP’s Performance In Delhi Helped Them In Winning Delhi Says, NCP’s Sharad Pawar

Mumbai: NCP chief Sharad Pawar said here on Thursday said, “the results of Assembly elections in Punjab has definitely overwhelmed Aam Admi Party and sent a shock wave to the Congress.”

Mr Pawar also pitched for initiating a “process” to give an alternative to the BJP by bringing opposition parties together.

Trends and available results of Punjab Elections suggest that Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP was on its way to sweep Punjab by ousting Congress.

“Punjab is a state where Congress was in power…the change in Punjab is not favourable to the BJP (either). The result gives a shock to the Congress,” Mr Pawar told the reporters.

The performance in Delhi has definitely helped Punjab in winning Punjab polls, as the common people living in the national capital have accepted the Kejriwal-led party, the NCP chief noted.

He also spoke about the need to initiate a process to give an “effective alternative” to the BJP by opposition parties on the basis of a common minimum programme.

“I am not saying this will happen tomorrow itself. Parliament’s session will resume on March 14. We will all be there for a month. So we will sit together, discuss and decide the future course of action,” Mr Pawar said.

“It will be our duty to help people strengthen democracy by taking steps together,” he added.

The veteran leader dismissed the possibility of the poll outcome in five states having any impact on the future of the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress government in Maharashtra.
