New Delhi/IBNS: Days after accusing the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of attempting to poach his MLAs, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will Monday bring a motion of confidence in the assembly to prove none of his party MLAs have joined the saffron camp.

As per the results of the last assembly elections, the AAP had won 60 of total 70 seats while the BJP had bagged only eight.

The political firestorm in the national capital began after Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia claimed he was urged by a BJP leader to join the saffron party to get all his legal cases closed.

Sisodia was raided by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) over the allegations of corruption in the Delhi liquor policy.

Rubbishing the AAP allegations, the BJP has claimed the ruling party was doing theatricts diverting attention from the questions raised on the liquor policy.

Kejriwals AAP, which had decimated the BJP in Delhi polls, is throwing a challenge to the saffron party in Prime Minister Narendra Modis backyard Gujarat, which will go to polls later this year.
