In a significant political development in New Delhi, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has suffered a major jolt as its chief national spokesperson, Priyanka Kakkar, has joined the Congress party. During an induction ceremony at the Congress headquarters, she officially switched sides and praised Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's leadership style.
A video capturing her remarks has gone viral on the social media platform X. Shared by news agency PTI, the clip shows Kakkar stating, "If there is one leader who is not afraid to promote his ideas, it is Rahul Gandhi. I observed that he is the only leader who has not shed tears for the cameras..." According to media reports and internet searches, Kakkar's departure along with other local leaders is being seen as a notable shift in Delhi's political equations.
The video has sparked diverse reactions among social media users and political analysts. While Congress supporters hail it as a testament to Rahul Gandhi's growing appeal, AAP loyalists have criticized the switch. Political experts believe this cross-over could influence upcoming electoral dynamics in the capital. Official statements from the AAP leadership are still awaited.
