- Fifteen councillors from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) resigned on Saturday to form the Indraprastha Vikas Party.
- Led by Mukesh Goel, the defectors stated that internal conflicts hindered their ability to serve Delhi, despite being in power.
- Himani Jain emphasized that no significant work had been accomplished in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi over the past two and a half years.
- This mass resignation highlights significant dissatisfaction within AAP, which has faced ongoing internal strife since its defeat in the February elections.
"In the last 2.5 years, no work was done in the corporation that should have been done. We were in power, yet we did nothing."— Himani Jain, AAP councillor, explains the rationale behind forming the Indraprastha Vikas Party.
