Alliance with AAP ruled out, states Sheila Dikshit

New Delhi: The Delhi Congress chief Sheila Dikshit has said that a unanimous decision has been taken that there will be no alliance in Delhi amid talks of a probable alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party, ANI reported on Tuesday.

"A unanimous decision has been taken that there will be no alliance in Delhi," ANI quoted Sheila Dikshit as saying.

The Delhi Congress on Tuesday began talks to devise its strategy for the Lok Sabha elections after a meeting was called by party president Rahul Gandhi. The Congress meeting took place in the backdrop of the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party announcing the names of its candidates for six of the seven Lok Sabha seats in Delhi.

On Sunday, an AAP leader had said that the party had not ruled out the possibility of reopening talks for an alliance with the Congress if a "serious attempt" was made.
