Manish Sisodia exposes the BJP-Congress Joint Venture in Gujarat. Claims BJP is deciding Congress candidates to stop AAP in municipal polls.
In a scathing attack on the political landscape of Gujarat, senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and former Deputy CM Manish Sisodia has made a series of explosive claims. Addressing the media ahead of the upcoming municipal corporation elections, Sisodia alleged that the state is no longer witnessing a battle between two ideologies, but rather the functioning of a BJP-Congress Joint Venture aimed at preserving their mutual interests.
Candidate Selection or Direct Interference?
The most startling allegation from Sisodia involves the internal selection process of the opposition. He claimed that BJP MLAs are openly boasting about their influence over rival parties. According to Sisodia, even the candidates for the Congress party are being finalized by the ruling BJP leadership. He stated that this BJP-Congress Joint Venture has effectively turned the democratic process into a scripted “friendly match” to keep the public in the dark.
The “Double-Engine” Mirage
Mocking the popular “double-engine” slogan, Sisodia remarked that the real double-engine power in Gujarat is the alliance between the ruling party and the principal opposition. He alleged that senior Congress leaders are actively instructing their cadre and the public to vote for the BJP instead of supporting AAP.
गुजरात में कांग्रेस-बीजेपी की गज़ब ही डबल इंजन सरकार चल रही है…
बीजेपी विधायक बता रहे हैं कि नगर निगम चुनाव में कांग्रेस के उम्मीदवार भी वही तय कर रहे हैं…
और कांग्रेस के वरिष्ठ नेता जनता से कह रहे हैं भले ही बीजेपी को वोट दे देना, बस AAP से बचना है।

“It is astonishing to see Congress leaders telling voters to go ahead and vote for the BJP, as long as they steer clear of AAP. This BJP-Congress Joint Venture is a desperate attempt to stop the politics of work—schools, hospitals, and honest governance—from entering Gujarat.” — Manish Sisodia
Why the Joint Venture?
Political analysts suggest that the rise of AAP in urban pockets of Gujarat has unsettled the traditional power balance. Sisodia argues that the BJP-Congress Joint Venture is a survival tactic. By sharing candidates and consolidating votes, both parties hope to prevent a third-party breakthrough that could disrupt the status quo they have enjoyed for decades.
The End of an Era
Concluding his address, the AAP veteran predicted a swift end to this “political partnership.” He asserted that the people of Gujarat have seen through the facade of the BJP-Congress Joint Venture and are ready to choose a path of genuine progress. Sisodia emphasized that despite the coordinated efforts of both traditional giants, the public’s desire for an “honest alternative” would prevail in the upcoming municipal elections.
As the campaign intensifies, the narrative of the BJP-Congress Joint Venture is likely to become a central theme, challenging the voters to decide between the established alliance or a new direction for the state.
