The united opposition's hopes of forging an alliance between the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party fell flat today as Delhi Congress chief Sheila Dikshit announced that there would be none. The announcement came after Congress chief Rahul Gandhi held a two-hour meet with the party's state leaders at his home at noon. Arvind Kejriwal's AAP, which declared candidates for six of Delhi's seven Lok Sabha seats earlier this month, were ready to negotiate and had several seat share formulas ready.
