Kharge, Akhilesh and Kejriwal likely to address joint press conference in Lucknow on May 15
The HinduThe Opposition INDIA bloc is exploring the possibility of holding a joint press conference of Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav and Aam Aadmi Party convenor and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in Lucknow on May 15, a source said on Monday. Mr. Kejriwal, who was released on interim bail last week in the alleged Delhi liquor policy scam, will be taking part in the first such programme with Congress and SP leaders. The Delhi Chief Minister had made an allegation on May 11 that hinted at an internal tussle within the BJP over prime ministerial ambitions. He claimed that once Prime Minister Narendra Modi wins a third term, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath would be marginalised and Union Home Minister Amit Shah would be the next PM candidate.
