New Delhi, July 19, 2025 —
In a major political development, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has officially announced its exit from the opposition-led INDIA alliance, citing ideological and leadership-related differences with the Congress party.
The decision, confirmed by senior AAP leader and MP *Sanjay Singh, marks a significant shift in the opposition’s dynamics ahead of upcoming elections in *Delhi, Haryana, and Bihar.
What Sanjay Singh Said:
“We are no longer part of the INDIA alliance. We will fight upcoming elections independently and raise public issues in Parliament with full force,” Sanjay Singh declared, while speaking to the media in Delhi.
Why the Split?
According to political analysts, the rift emerged due to internal disagreements over Congress’ role in steering the INDIA alliance. AAP had previously raised concerns about Congress’ lack of coordination, decision-making delays, and dominant approach within the alliance framework.
What This Means for the 2025 Elections:
- AAP will contest the Delhi, Haryana, and Bihar Assembly Elections alone.
- The breakup weakens the unified opposition front against the BJP-led NDA.
- The Congress-AAP alliance, once seen as a potential game-changer in urban regions, has now officially collapsed.
Background Context:
AAP had joined the INDIA bloc with hopes of building a unified anti-BJP platform. However, friction with the Congress over seat-sharing and campaign strategies had been brewing for months. This latest announcement cements the ideological gap between the two key opposition parties.
Conclusion:
With AAP’s departure, the INDIA alliance faces a fresh challenge in maintaining opposition unity ahead of crucial state and national elections. The party’s decision to go solo could reshuffle electoral equations in several states, particularly where AAP has a strong urban voter base.
