Chandigarh, April 1 -- In a move reminiscent of high-stakes political maneuvering, the Congress party on Sunday hinted at the possibility of joining forces with the ruling party Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Punjab ahead of the looming Lok Sabha elections, slated for June 1 in the border state.

The drama unfolded during the INDIA bloc's electrifying rally at Ramlila Maidan in New Delhi, where Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge strategically directed his remarks towards Punjab Chief Minister and the AAP leader Bhagwant Mann. With a twinkle in his eye and a hint of intrigue in his tone, Kharge asserted, "We will move together. I expect the Punjab Chief Minister that we will achieve something only when we will fight together."

The cry...
