In frantic attempts to bring the Congress and Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) together in Delhi for next month's national election, Maharashtra politician Sharad Pawar has taken on the role of mediator. After Sharad Pawar's intervention, Delhi Congress chief Sheila Dikshit met with colleagues at her home to reconsider a tie-up with AAP - an idea that she has resisted vehemently so far. The leaders later told reporters that they would abide by their bosses' decision.
