New Delhi, Apr 15 (ANI): After the Congress party announced its decision to go solo in Delhi, Congress chief Rahul Gandhi on Monday took to Twitter to say that his party is still willing to give up four seats to the Aam Admi Party (AAP) to seal an alliance in the national capital and ensure the "rout" of common rival -- BJP.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal retorted in a counter tweet, stating that Rahul was just indulging in talk and was not serious about the alliance.
"An alliance between the Congress and the AAP in Delhi would mean the rout of the BJP. The Congress is willing to give up 4 Delhi seats to the AAP to ensure this," the Congress chief took to Twitter to post.
Rahul said the Congress' doors are still open but the clock was running out.
"But, Mr Kejriwal has done yet another U-turn!," wrote Rahul putting the blame on the Delhi Chief Minister for the delay in sealing the alliance.
"Our doors are still open, but the clock is running out," Rahul said putting the ball in the AAP's court and added #AbAAPkiBaari hashtag to his post.
In a prompt response, Arvind Kejriwal posted in Hindi "What U-turn are you talking about?"
The Delhi CM said that the Congress chief is just putting out statements, I am sorry that your tweet gives the impression that the alliance is just a show."
"Unfortunately, you are helping Modi to share the anti-Modi vote in UP and other states too," Kerjriwal posted.
कौन सा U-टर्न?अभी तो बातचीत चल रही थी

आपका ट्वीट दिखाता है कि गठबंधन आपकी इच्छा नहीं मात्र दिखावा है।मुझे दुःख है आप बयान बाज़ी कर रहे हैं
आज देश को मोदी-शाह के ख़तरे से बचाना अहं है।दुर्भाग्य कि आप UP और अन्य राज्यों में भी मोदी विरोधी वोट बाँट कर मोदी जी की मदद कर रहे हैं https://t.co/9jnYXJFA0S
