While Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor Arvind Kejriwal is busy making political equations for the upcoming assembly elections, on the other hand, a big Muslim MLA from his own party resigned on Tuesday. Seelampur MLA Abdul Rehman left the party on Tuesday. In his resignation, he made sharp allegations against the party and Arvind Kejriwal. Rehman said that 'AAP' is entangled in power politics and is ignoring the rights of the Muslim minority community. He alleged that Arvind Kejriwal has always avoided addressing public issues for political gain.

Discontent increased after ticket was cut

Rehman's resignation came to light when Aam Aadmi Party declared Zubair Ahmed as the candidate from Seelampur in its second list. Angry at the ticket being cut, Rehman accused the party of ignoring the minorities. In his resignation, he said that he will continue the fight for justice and rights. This matter is being considered as the result of discontent going on for a month. Rehman was said to be angry with the party ever since Zubair Ahmed joined the AAP. He resigned from the post of head of the party's minority wing on October 29. Now speculations of his joining the Congress have intensified. His move can have a big impact on the minority vote bank in Delhi.

Impact of Delhi Assembly Elections 2025

The Delhi Assembly elections are scheduled to be held in February 2025, in which there will be a contest for all 70 seats. The Aam Aadmi Party is currently in power and Arvind Kejriwal is the Chief Minister for the third time. In such a situation, this resignation can prove to be a big setback for the party. Opposition parties, especially the Congress and the BJP, are trying to strengthen their position by taking advantage of this opportunity. In the upcoming elections, it will be interesting to see how the Aam Aadmi Party recovers from this setback and how much the opposition parties are able to cash in on it in their favor. Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party is also seen in active mode regarding the elections in Delhi.
