Noting they were "missing" anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare, Aam Aadmi Party leader Sanjay Singh today said that had he been associated with the party it would have achieved its target easily.

"The party is missing Hazare. Had he been with us, we would have easily achieved our target," Singh, a core committee member of AAP, told PTI in an interview here.

Claiming that AAP would won 100 seats in the Lok Sabha polls, Singh said the party has so far declared candidates for 287 seats and will contest in all seats in Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, Maharashtra, Haryana, Punjab, Madhya Pradesh and Chhatisgarh.

Asked about supporting any other party after the polls, Singh said, except BJP and Congress, his party would support any party which would promise bringing in the Jan Lokpal Bill.

"Both BJP and Congress have fielded corrupt and criminal elements in polls. At this time only AAP is an alternative before the people," he said.

Alleging that both Congress and BJP were worried due to their exposure by AAP, Singh said that due to this they were deliberately targeting and attacking AAP workers.

"Attack on Manish Sisodia in Gujarat and Kumar Vishwas in Amethi are examples," he added.
