No Alliance with JJP

Responding to questions about a potential alliance with the Jannayak Janata Party (JJP), Gupta dismissed the idea, criticizing the JJP for supporting the BJP during farmers' protests. He asserted that AAP would not align with such a party. Gupta claimed that the people of Haryana now see AAP as a viable alternative, especially with growing dissatisfaction toward the BJP. He pointed out issues like unemployment, drug abuse, and poor law-and-order under the current government, leading to widespread public frustration.
