He tweeted, "The manifesto of Congress is a big deception with the people of Delhi.Congress has been promising to Delhi people for the last 20 years that it will give Delhi the status of full statehood. Why has it refused this time? How can anybody believe that Congress will fulfil all the promises?"

The Congress who has released it's a manifesto on Tuesday for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections has promised full statehood for Puducherry. The AAP has decided to fight the election on the issue of the granting full-statehood to Delhi.
