Game of Votes, Lok Sabha Elections 2024: An alliance has been formed between Aam Aadmi Party and Congress in Delhi for the Lok Sabha elections 2024. Of the seven seats in Delhi, four have gone to the Aam Aadmi Party. At the same time, Congress will contest elections on three seats. Aam Aadmi Party will field candidates from South Delhi, West Delhi, East Delhi and New Delhi Lok Sabha seats, while Congress will contest from Chandni Chowk, North West Delhi and North East Delhi seats. After this it has been decided that all the votes of the Gandhi family will go to the Aam Aadmi Party candidate. At the same time, Arvind Kejriwal’s vote will go to the Congress candidate.
All members of the Gandhi family are voters of New Delhi Lok Sabha seat. In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, Rahul Gandhi voted at the polling booth in Aurangzeb Senior Secondary School. At the same time, Sonia Gandhi went to Nirman Bhawan and Priyanka Gandhi with her husband Robert Vadra went to Lodhi State to vote. In such a situation, all these leaders will vote for the Aam Aadmi Party candidate instead of the Congress candidate.
Mukul Wasnik announced about alliance with AAP
Congress leader Mukul Wasnik announced that the AAP will contest the New Delhi, West Delhi, South Delhi, and East Delhi seats, while his party will contest the Chandni Chowk, Northeast Delhi, and Northwest Delhi seats. “In Gujarat, the AAP will contest from Bharuch and Bhavnagar, while the Congress will field its candidates from the remaining 24 seats in the state. In Haryana, the AAP will contest the Lok Sabha polls from Kurukshetra. The Congress will contest both the Lok Sabha seats in Goa,” he said. The Congress will also contest the lone seat in Chandigarh, Wasnik said.

This seat has gone to Congress’s account in the alliance. In such a situation, Arvind Kejriwal will vote for the Congress candidate. Rajya Sabha member Swati Maliwal will also vote for the Congress candidate.
Apart from Delhi, alliance has been made in these states
