Delhi Elections 2025: On Thursday, Sanjay Singh, a Member of Parliament from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of trying to entice seven of AAP’s MLAs to cross over by offering them a sum of ” ₹15 crores.”
“We have advised our MLAs to keep track of such audio calls and file complaints. If anyone approaches them, they must record the encounter discreetly with a hidden camera,” Sanjay Singh added.
It’s noteworthy that just on February 1, mere days ahead of the February 5 Delhi Assembly elections, several MLAs cited claims of corruption and ideological drift as reasons for their departure from the party.
Madan Lal, one of the former AAP MLAs who resigned, criticized the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP for substituting committed workers with candidates burdened by criminal cases and several FIRs.
Nonetheless, Sanjay Singh contended that the BJP is actively attempting to destabilize the AAP. “The BJP has already acknowledged its defeat prior to the vote counting and, like in other parts of the country, has commenced a campaign of poaching in Delhi as well,” he expressed vehemently against the saffron party.
On Wednesday, Delhi cast its votes to choose representatives for 70 Assembly constituencies.
