New Delhi: On Wednesday, Aam Aadmi Party senior leader Sanjay Singh said that the AAP  has rejected the Congress' offer to form an alliance in any state. He added that all the routes of a tie-up with Congress have been shut and the move will benefit the BJP. Singh said "In Punjab, where we have four MP and 20 MLA, a single seat is not being given to us," he said. "In Chandigarh, where we got 1.30 lakh votes, they are not giving us a single seat. In Goa, where we got six per cent votes, either no seats there. In Delhi, where the Congress has no presence, they want to give us three seats,". In further, he added that the AAP has rejected the offer made by Congress and henceforth there would be no talks with the Congress on the alliance.

Singh as saying "Congress is not in favour of alliance and it seems they want to benefit BJP. AAP will contest and win all seven seats in Delhi,". All India Congress Committee (AICC) in-charge of Delhi Congress PC Chacko, meanwhile, welcomed Sanjay Singh's statement. Chacko told "No problem, we welcome his statement,". Chacko added that as in-charge of Delhi Congress, he had begun talks with AAP because both the parties had agreed that the BJP cannot be defeated if AAP and Congress contest separately in the upcoming elections.
