AAP to reveal final stand on Delhi government formation after Arvind Kejriwal meets Lt Governor tomorrow

New Delhi: Arvind Kejriwal is unwell but will keep his appointment with the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi Najeeb Jung at 10.30 on Saturday morning.

At the meeting, Mr Jung is expected to invite Mr Kejriwal to form government in Delhi after the BJP, the single-largest party in last week's election, informed him last evening it does not have the numbers to do so.

Yogendra Yadav of Mr Kejriwal's Aam Aami Party today said, "we will formally reveal our stand after meeting the L-G." But he also  reiterated the party's stand so far that it does not have a majority in Delhi and is "not for deal-making on govt formation."

AAP made a dream debut in last week's Delhi elections, winning 28 of the 70 seats, second only to the BJP, which has 32 seats along with ally, Akali Dal. A party needs at least 36 MLAs to form government in the capital.

AAP would need the support of eight more legislators  - exactly the number a badly-mauled Congress now has -  but has so far insisted that it will neither take support from the Congress to form government, nor help the BJP do so.

It has also said that it is ready to face fresh elections in Delhi.

So is the BJP, said that party's chief ministerial candidate Harsh Vardhan after his meeting with the Lieutenant Governor on Thursday  evening. "Circumstances are taking us towards another election. We are not to blame for that," he said. (Read: After BJP's No, Lt Governor invites Aam Aadmi Party for talks)

If no party comes forward to form government, the Lieutenant Governor will have to recommend President's Rule. He will then run the government with the help of advisers until fresh elections are held. If needed, they are likely to be held along with general elections due by May.
