JDU leader KC Tyagi while to a newswire said, "INDIA alliance is on the verge of breaking due to the irresponsible and obstinate attitude of Congress." Tyagi further said, "There is a big possibility of Akali Dal and BJP coming together in Punjab and the possibility of a fight between Congress and AAP. Similarly, Akhilesh Yadav is also unhappy with the attitude of the Congress leaders who want to hand over TMC's elected government to the President's rule. Chief Minister Mamata has further increased the controversy by not allowing Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra. The INDIA alliance that we had is now tattered and is headed towards its decline."
