‘I won’t comment on Congress considering support to AAP. If they want to form a government in Delhi, they can very well do that,’ Harsh Vardhan said.
Congress leader Shakeel Ahmed on Tuesday told media that the party was mulling giving unconditional support to AAP from outside.
The Delhi polls returned a hung house with both the AAP and Bharatiya Janata Party not able to reach the majority figure of 36.
Harsh Vardhan, who was elected leader of the BJP legislature party on Tuesday, said the BJP would not try to form the government in an ‘unethical’ manner.
‘The situation is the same as it was 24 hours ago. We will not take the initiative to form the government and not indulge in any sort of horse trading,’ he said.
Delhi seems to be headed for President’s Rule if none of the two parties are able to form the government.
Harsh Vardhan, anointed BJP’s chief ministerial nominee less than a month before the Delhi Assembly polls after a bitter internal squabble, steadfastly united various factions to bring enthusiasm among workers to keep the party on course to regain power from Congress after 15 years.
An RSS member since his younger days, 59-year-old Vardhan, a practicing ENT surgeon known for his disarming simplicity, sucessfully connected with the voters while leading a high-voltage campaign from the front despite undercurrents of friction in the Delhi party unit.
