At a press conference here, AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal claimed that the BJP was in touch with 15 AAP MLAs and he will come out with "more sting tapes if the need arises".
Kejriwal had yesterday released a video of a "sting operation" in which BJP's Delhi unit Vice President Sher Singh Dagar allegedly offered bribe to AAP MLA from Sangam Vihar Dinesh Mohania to switch sides.
"By saying this we make it clear that we are not aiming to form the government, but we want to stop the BJP from forming the government through dishonest means. We are in favour of elections," Kejriwal said.
The former Delhi Chief Minister also accused Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung of batting for the BJP and demanded that letter written by Lieutenant Governor to the President seeking his permission to invite the BJP for government formation should be withdrawn immediately.
"The letter written by the LG to the president should be immediately withdrawn and revised," he said.
He also announced to launch a campaign to "expose" the saffron party before the people.
"We will go to the people of Delhi with the video clip and tell how the BJP is trying to buy our MLAs and expose the way they were trying to form a government in Delhi by putting all ethics and morality on the backburner," said Kejriwal.
He wondered why BJP was "afraid" of polls. "It is their government, their governor, they have 7 MPs then why they don't want to go for elections in the national capital," Kejriwal said.
