New Delhi, Jan 30 (IBNS): The meeting between Bharatiya Janana Party (BJP) and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) over the sealing issue in the national capital on Tuesday failed after the BJP leaders  walked out of the room over disagreement, media reports said.

The meeting was held to discuss the drive to seal several shops in the national capital by the MCD following the direction of the Supreme Court.

The sealing drive is carried out against the business establishments under residential properties for commercial values. The drive is reported to be carried out in 351 roads.

The BJP leaders, however, refused to hold the meeting in front of the television cameras to which Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal did not agree.

It is after this disagreement, the BJP leaders walked out of the meeting.

Later the BJP even alleged that their leaders were heckled by the AAP supporters.

Holding a press conference, Kejriwal said: "Delhi will go to the Supreme Court to put a temporary ban on sealing of shops."
