AAP's Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh has written a letter to BJP leader Vijay Goel asking three questions. In the letter, the AAP leader has attempted to corner the BJP, posing three questions that he said the people of Delhi want to ask the saffron party and appealed receive a response within 24 hours. Sanjay Singh also addressed a press briefing in Delhi, taking a dig at BJP. Speaking at the briefing, the AAP MP said he was confused about who should the letter be addressed to as there are three CM candidates from Delhi BJP. "People of Delhi want to ask BJP some questions which is why I am writing this letter. As you have three chief ministerial candidates, I was in a dilemma as to whom should I address it to. Since you are the senior-most and experienced, I chose to address it to you," Singh said hinting at Vijay Goel as per news agency PTI.
