Arvinder Singh Lovely resigns as Delhi Congress chief over party's alliance with AAP
Congress' Delhi president Arvinder Singh Lovely resigned from the post citing discomfort with party's decision to ally with the Aam Aadmi Party for the upcoming elections, as per a letter quoted by ANI.
«The Delhi Congress Unit was against an alliance with a Party which was formed on the sole basis of leveling false, fabricated and malafide corruption charges against the Congress Party. Despite that, the Party made a decision to ally with the AAP in Delhi...,» Lovely said in a letter.
«Not only did I publicly back the decision, I also ensured that the full State Unit fell in line with the High Command's final order. On instructions from AICC General Security, I even went to the extent of visiting Arvind Kejriwal's resident on the night of his arrest along with Subhash Chopra, Sandeep Dikshit, despite the same being against my position on the matter,» Lovely said.
