A Muslim resident in south Delhi told IANS: "Muslims have always voted for the lesser evil. That is why we voted for the Congress vis-a-vis the BJP. Now that AAP is there, why not vote for a party which looks good?"
The Congress visibly looks jittery vis-a-vis AAP in Delhi.
Almost every other day, the Congress presents to the media some people who it says are Muslims now disgusted with AAP.
The other day, a dozen men, said to be Muslims, dumped the trademark AAP white caps in the Congress office and donned stole designed on the Congress party's colours.
Says Jamaat's Engineer: "Our people are in touch with AAP. We are impressed by what we saw in Delhi. If they want to do good, why shouldn't we support them?"
