Weeks before Chandigarh's mayoral election on January 29, INDIA bloc partners Congress and AAP face internal friction. AAP's Chandigarh in-charge accused Congress of covert ties with BJP, citing the current distribution of mayoral posts. Congress retorted by questioning AAP's alliance with BJP when AAP held the mayor's seat. Despite these public exchanges, AAP leaders are working to resolve the issue, prioritizing a united front against the BJP.
