Congress, SP, TMC among others to join INDIA bloc rally on Tuesday: AAP
The rally at Jantar Mantar will be held to raise the issue of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's declining health in judicial custody
New Delhi, Jul 29 (PTI) AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh on Monday said Congress, Samajwadi Party, and Trinamool Congress are among the parties that will be part of the INDIA bloc rally at Jantar Mantar to raise the issue of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's declining health in judicial custody.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has been accusing the BJP of “conspiring to kill” Kejriwal in jail and cited his medical report to show that his sugar levels have fallen 34 times between June 3 and July 7.
During a press conference, Singh was asked about the parties joining the rally.
"Congress, Samajwadi Party, Trinamool Congress, DMK, CPI, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha, Nationalist Congress Party – Sharadchandra Pawar (NCP-SP), Shiv Sena (UBT) and Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist) Liberation. We are in talks with two to three more parties," he said.
However, Singh said the names of the leaders joining the rally at Jantar Mantar will be known on Tuesday.
Kejriwal was arrested on March 21 by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case linked to the alleged excise policy scam and has been granted bail by the Supreme Court. However, he is currently lodged in Tihar in a connected CBI case. PTI
