Two days ahead of Delhi Election results, the Aam Aadmi Party on Thursday said that seven party MLAs have received phone calls from people associated with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), who have offered the legislators Rs 15 crore to join the BJP.

AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh, who made the claim during a press conference on Thursday, said that his party has asked MLAs to record the calls from the BJP and complaint regarding it. There was no immediate reaction from the BJP.

"Seven MLAs (of AAP) have received phone calls from some BJP elements, who have offered to give them Rs 15 crore to leave the Aam Aadmi Party and join the BJP... We have told the MLAs to record such audio calls and complain about it. If anyone meets them, they should make a video of it with a hidden camera," Singh said.

Singh said that this clearly shows that the BJP has accepted its defeat before the results, and that is why it is trying something like this.

"The BJP has accepted its defeat even before the counting of votes and like the rest of the country, the BJP has started the politics of breaking parties in Delhi as well," he added.

The MP mentioned that the party has advised its candidates to record such calls and use spy cameras to document any face-to-face meetings if the offers are made.

Polling across Delhi's 70 constituencies took place on February 5 to decide the electoral fate of 699 candidates. The results, scheduled to be announced on February 8, will determine whether the AAP can secure a third consecutive term in power or if the BJP will break its 27-year-long wait to return to the capital.
