New Delhi: In the Delhi Mayor election, the BJP has accused the AAP leaders of indulging in horse trading of councillors while the rivals vehemently refuted the allegations. The council meeting of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi was adjourned for the third time on Monday with the members failing yet again to elect their mayor amid a ruckus.
Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva has alleged that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) wants to buy BJP councillors by offering them Rs 1 crore each. However AAP MLA Atishi termed this allegation as false and ridiculous. Addressing a presser, Atishi said that the BJP is trying to disrupt the mayoral election for petty reasons. “Accept the mandate of the people of Delhi. Let the mayor's election happen. Stopping the election is unconstitutional,” she said.
