How will AAP and Congress establish coordination in Punjab?
Regarding seat sharing with AAP in Punjab, the former Union Minister said, “We have not yet discussed with the party leadership regarding Punjab. We have been told to leave it for some time. As far as possible, the matter should be clarified by talks with other parties. There are some problems in Punjab and we will try to resolve them only by talking to the Congress leadership.”
What will be Congress’s formula on seat sharing?
Regarding the seat sharing formula, Salman Khurshid said, “The formula will be different in every state because the ground reality is different everywhere. We cannot speak about other parties, this should be in their mind also. Along with all these things, we also have to keep in mind that there is life even after 2024. Yes, 2024 is an important milestone but we are not closing shop in 2024. We hope that we will form the government at the Center with our fellow parties. Every party needs to move forward.”
