Why Are We Gloating Over AAP Victory?: Chidambaram’s Tweet Bugs Party Member

Delhi Mahila Congress president Sharmistha Mukherjee is asking former finance minister the reason INC is gloating over AAP victory while they are defeated.

New Delhi| Arvind Kejriwal’s AAP won 62 of Delhi’s 70 seats, the BJP was limited to eight and Indian National Congress could not open their account.

While many politicians from the opposition have congratulated Arvind Kejriwal for winning Delhi Elections 2020, P Chidambaram faced the fury of his party member for lauding the victory since INC could not even secure one seat in Delhi.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)’s a big win in the Delhi election has opened up a rift within the Congress, which suffered its second back-to-back duck in the capital. Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram posted a tweet “saluting” the people of Delhi for defeating the BJP and was called out by his own party spokesperson, Sharmistha Mukherjee for the same.

Sharmistha Mukherjee, Daughter of Pranab Mukherjee, is the President of Delhi Mahila Congress, is the women’s wing of the Congress party.

In other tweets, she has expressed disappointment with INC’s laxity during the national capital’s assembly elections.

In this Delhi election, the Congress’s vote percentage is the lowest in any assembly poll — 4.26% — and has decreased sharply from 22.5 % in the national election last year.
