Refuting rumours that it was supporting particular political parties or candidates, the AAP Sunday asked its supporters to opt for the NOTA (none of the above) button on electronic voting machines for Wednesday's assembly elections in Haryana.

The AAP, which is not contesting any of the 90 assembly seats, made it clear that it had not extended support to any political party or candidate.
