The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convened a meeting of its Punjab MLAs in Jalandhar to demonstrate unity following the recent defection of seven Rajya Sabha MPs to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). However, only about 65 of the 94 MLAs attended, with significant absences from prominent ministers, leading to speculation about internal discord. AAP Punjab chief Aman Arora and other key leaders were present, but the absence of figures like Sanjeev Arora and Harjot Singh Bains raised eyebrows. AAP's Punjab in-charge, Manish Sisodia, emphasized the importance of unity, suggesting that the party could achieve significant success if they remain cohesive. The meeting also saw participation from around 1,000 AAP block observers, indicating efforts to strengthen grassroots support. The political landscape is tense, with claims from the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) that more AAP MPs may leave, and Punjab Congress chief Amrinder Singh Raja Warring predicting that up to 50 legislators could abandon AAP in the near future.
