Sisodia underplayed the reported bickering within the AAP over ticket distribution and said the party had fielded more journalists than any other party as "they have a fair idea of what is happening on the ground".

At the same time, he accused sections of the media of unfairly targeting the AAP. "A section of the media is compromised... That are betraying the country. If we do wrong, criticize us. But they are running a smear campaign. Many stories are not based on facts."

Sisodia claimed that the AAP tour of Gujarat this month had helped expose many claims made by Modi on how the state had been developed.

"Our purpose was to get a fair idea about the condition of schools, hospitals, colleges and youths," he said, adding that 26 AAP teams visited all the districts in Gujarat.
