In a major political shift in New Delhi, Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) Chief National Spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar has officially joined the Congress party. A video capturing this significant moment was shared on X by news agency PTI, quickly gaining traction across social media platforms. In the video, Kakkar can be seen addressing the media and supporters after her transition.
Explaining her decision to join the grand old party, Kakkar heaped praise on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. In the viral clip, she remarked, "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." Media reports from various outlets have corroborated that this high-profile defection comes as a notable setback for AAP in the national capital, with several other prominent local figures reportedly making the switch alongside her ahead of upcoming political milestones in Delhi.
The political development has sparked widespread reactions online, with political analysts debating its potential impact on regional dynamics. While Congress supporters view this as a testament to the growing appeal of their leadership, political observers note that defections of prominent spokespersons could alter campaign narratives in Delhi. Further official statements from the leadership of both parties are awaited as this story continues to develop.
