Kejriwal features in posters ahead of Oppn meet

July 16, 2023 17:01

With the Congress party breaking its 'silence' and openly declaring its support to Aam Aadmi Party in its fight against the Centre's Ordinance over control of Delhi's bureaucrats, posters of Arvind Kejriwal were put up in Bengaluru on Sunday, along with several opposition leaders, who will attend the big opposition meeting to be held in Bengaluru.

However, the AAP has called a meeting of its Political Affairs Committee (PAC) in the national capital on Sunday to decide whether to participate in the July 17-18 opposition meeting.

Earlier in the day, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chaddha labelled the grand old party's clear stance on the Ordinance issue as a 'positive development'.

Taking to Twitter, Chaddha said, 'Congress announces its unequivocal opposition to the Delhi Ordinance. This is a positive development.'

The meet in Bengaluru is scheduled with the purpose of uniting the opposition to take on the Bharatiya Janata Party in the upcoming general assembly polls in 2024.

Top leaders of at least 24 political parties would attend the second Opposition unity meeting being convened by Congress in Karnataka's Bengaluru from July 17 to 18. -- ANI
