Congress leader Rashid Alvi on Friday said that the party is ready for fresh elections in Delhi.

Alvi told ANI, "The same thing which is repeated again and again daily that congress MLAs will break down is completely wrong. We have always maintained a strong party formation and are ready for elections."

Delhi has been under President's rule since February when Kejriwal resigned from the post of chief minister after his 49-day-old government failed to table its Jan Lokpal Bill in the state assembly.

The Assembly has been under suspended animation ever since and no party has staked claim to form the government.

 

BJP had won 31 seats in the Delhi Assembly polls of December last year but its number has come down to 28 in the 70-member house as three of its MLAs - Harsh Vardhan, Ramesh Bidhuri and Pervesh Verma - were elected to Lok Sabha in the recent general elections.
