Delhi Chief Minister and AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday sought to reject the idea of joining hands with 10 or 20 political parties to defeat the ruling BJP government and said that he will only enter into an alliance with 130 crore people of the country.

The Delhi CM further said that he didn’t want to defeat anyone in politics but was willing to make India the number one country in the world.

Kejriwal made the remarks while speaking on ‘AAP and its role in 2024 Lok Sabha elections’ as part of a event organised to celebrate the golden jubilee of the Nagpur edition of Lokmat.

“Many people ask me with whom will we do a national alliance. I do not know how to do politics. I don’t understand alliances of 10 and 20 parties to defeat anyone. I don’t want to defeat anyone, I want the country to win. I will only enter into an alliance with 130 crore people of the country to make India number one in the world,” he said.

The AAP chief’s statement comes as several opposition parties are pitching for a joint front against the BJP to defeat the saffron party in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

Asserting that AAP was not focusing on the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, Kejriwal said that his party was working for the country and that people like him left their careers and joined politics to serve the country.

Kejriwal said India must become the number one country in the world as soon as possible and that he wanted to play a key role in this quest.
