Aam Aadmi Party Candidate List for Delhi Election 2020: The Aam Aadmi Party on Tuesday released the list of all 70 candidates for the Delhi Assembly elections scheduled to take place on February 8. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will contest from New Delhi seat and his deputy Manish Sisodia will contest from Patparganj Assembly seat. Apart from the duo, Dilip Pandey will contest from Timarpur, Rakhi Bidlan from Mangolpuri, Satyendra Jain from Shakur Basti, Parlad Singh Sawhney from Chandni Chowk, Raghav Chaddha from Rajinder Nagar, Somnath Bharti from Malviya Nagar, Saurabh Bhardwaj from Greater Kailash, Atishi from Kalkaji, Ramniwas Goyal from Shahdara, Gopal Rai from Babarpur. Some of these leaders had also contested the Lok Sabha polls last year but failed to win. For instance, Atishi had contested from East Delhi and lost to BJP’s Gautam Gambhir.
The AAP has fielded most of its sitting MLAs. In the last elections held in 2015, the AAP had won 67 of 70 seats. The BJP was restricted to just three seats while Congress could not even open its account. The polling will happen on February 8 and the results will be declared on February 11. An opinion poll conducted by ABP news channel recently predicted a comfortable win for Arvind Kejriwal.
Delhi is set to witness a triangular fight with Congress, AAP and BJP in the fray. The BJP and Congress are yet to release the names of their candidates for the assembly polls. Both the parties are looking to put up a fight against Arvind Kejriwal but are yet to declare their chief ministerial candidate to take on AAP chief in the national capital.
Important Announcement :
Aam Aadmi Party declares all 70 candidates for the upcoming Delhi election.
We congratulate all the candidates and wish them all the best to establish high levels of trust and integrity within their constituency.#AAPKeCandidates pic.twitter.com/mbby8Z2GCR
