Opposition Unity: There is a week left in the meeting of opposition unity to be held in Bengaluru, but there is doubt about the stand of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). In fact, after receiving the invitation for the Bengaluru meeting, Arvind Kejriwal has again pointed the gun towards the Congress regarding the ordinance. Kejriwal claimed that in the Patna meeting, the Congress had promised to give its stand on the ordinance 15 days before the Parliament session.

After this statement, Congress sources have claimed that Kejriwal's attitude is childish and the talk of 15 days is a habitual lie. According to the Congress, the purpose of the meeting of opposition unity is to chalk out a strategy for 2024 and not to discuss the ordinance on Delhi. The Congress has categorically denied Kejriwal's claim. In the meeting held in Patna, Jammu and Kashmir CM Omar Abdullah surrounded Kejriwal on Article 370.

When Kejriwal himself came under attack in Patna meeting

When the central government took this big decision regarding Kashmir, then the Aam Aadmi Party supported it. In the meeting, as soon as Kejriwal sought the support of all opposition parties on the dictatorial attitude of the BJP government, Umar reminded him of his statement on Article 370.

Not only this, he had to face questions on the harassment of Congress workers in Punjab on the argument of misuse of power by the central government. In such a situation, the question in the mind of the rest of the opposition parties is that the speed with which Kejriwal wants everyone's support on the Delhi Ordinance, will he be able to show the same maturity for other parties?

Where Congress is promoting AAP, what kind of opposition unity Kejriwal wants

The biggest formula of opposition unity to remove BJP is that the party which has the upper hand in the state should cooperate with the rest of the parties. But on the contrary, the Aam Aadmi Party blew the election bugle for Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh. Arvind Kejriwal started the election campaign of Aam Aadmi Party from Gwalior after the Patna meeting.

Not only this, the Aam Aadmi Party has started campaigning in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh. The Aam Aadmi Party knows very well that it is not in a position to win the elections in these states, but the votes will definitely become cut off, dashing the hopes of the Congress. Now looking at the track record of elections from Gujarat to Goa and Delhi, Congress believes that Kejriwal is looking for a way out of opposition unity. In such a situation, if the important leaders of the opposition party do not find a way to mediate, then the opposition unity in the form of Kejriwal is likely to fall in Bangalore itself.
