New Delhi, June 22 : Sources in the AAP have claimed that there is a possibility that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal may walk out of the opposition party meeting scheduled to take place in Bihar's Patna on Friday if the Congress doesn't support him on the ordinance issue.
"We want the Congress to clarify their stance on the ordinance matter. We requested a meeting with Congress leaders, but they were unavailable. Now, if the Congress doesn't support us on the ordinance issue during the opposition meeting tomorrow, the Delhi CM will walk out," said party sources.
Kejriwal also wrote a letter on June 21 to the opposition leaders, urging them to prioritise discussions on defeating the Central government ordinance in Parliament.
Kejriwal has said that Delhi's ordinance was an experiment, and if successful, the central government might replicate it to curtail the rights of non-BJP state governments through similar ordinances.
