Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Manish Sisodia on Sunday said that his party will not form the government to praise the Bharatiya Janata party (BJP) or the Congress and added that they will work find solutions to all issues including corruption.

"The trends are still coming but largely the people are in favor that the AAP should form a government in Delhi. But there are still some meetings, which will be held today," said Sisodia.

Sisodia further asserted that if the same trend were followed, then the AAP would not shy away from its responsibility to form the government.

"We will find solutions to the issues, which we have raised in our manifesto,"

"We did not ask for the support of the BJP and the Congress. We were ready to sit in Opposition. But it was them, who offered their support to us. They wrote a letter of support to the Lieutenant Governor. This does not mean that we will start praising them," Sisodia said.

"We will form Government for issues, not for praising BJP or Congress. We will form the government to work for the people and, to stop corruption," he added.

On Congress leader Kiran Walia recent statement, Sisodia said, "We don't know why Kiran Walia is making such statements. Only she can tell about her and her statements."

On Saturday, Walia told a news channel: "We have said we will not bring down your government. But the support is not for always. There's always the scope of a rethink if they don't deliver.
