AAP directs its MPs to vote against Modi government in no-confidence motion

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Thursday issued a whip, directing its MPs to vote against Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government in the no-confidence motion in parliament on Friday.

The chief whip, Bhagwant Mann, issued the directive that will be binding on the four MPs of the party in the Lok Sabha, said a senior AAP leader. Among them is the party’s suspended MP from Patiala Dharamvir Gandhi.

A delegation of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leaders on Thursday sought support from Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to the no-confidence motion against the Modi government tabled by them in the Lok Sabha.

The Lok Sabha will on Friday debate and vote on an opposition-sponsored no-confidence motion against the Modi government, the first since the BJP-led NDA combine came to power four years ago.

Led by TDP Parliamentary Party leader Y.S. Chowdary, state Ministers T.G. Venkatesh, K. Narayana and Narasimha Rao met Kejriwal to seek the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) support in both houses of Parliament against the Modi government.
