Delhi polls: Sheila Dikshit dodges question on post-poll alliance with AAP

NEW DELHI: Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit dodged a question about the possibility of a post-poll alliance with Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Admi Party if Congress falls short of majority in the December 4 assembly polls.

"I will be able to answer the question when such a situation arises," she told reporters when asked whether Congress would take the support of AAP if it did not manage to get majority in the 70-member House.

The Chief Minister, who is eyeing an unprecedented fourth consecutive victory, said she was confident of forming the next government "as people of Delhi will support Congress which has ensured inclusive growth in the last 15 years".

"I am sure people will give a clear mandate. We are going to win the polls. We are working hard," she said.

"We have worked very hard in the last 15 years. So, I am confident of the people's support for Congress," she said.
