The Aam Aadmi Party, the BJP alliance and the Congress are contesting the forthcoming Assembly elections in Punjab on the 20th. The BJP alliance has not announced its chief ministerial candidate. The Congress party has not yet officially announced this. But the Aam Aadmi Party also released a mobile number last week saying it would ask the people to decide its prime ministerial candidate. Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal has said that people can send an SMS to the mobile number on who should be the chief minister till the 17th.
The party also said that the first candidate would be announced on the afternoon of the 18th. Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Herbal Singh has said that millions of people have expressed their views on the issue of who is the first candidate for the post. Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal today (18.01.22) announced the results of the by-elections. Kejriwal has announced that the party’s state president Bhagwant Mann will be declared the chief ministerial candidate.
More than 21 lakh people are said to have suggested that Bhagwant Mann should come first. Bhagwant Mann, a two-time MP, has now been declared the first candidate. In the last assembly elections, the Aam Aadmi Party won 20 seats and came in second. In the current elections, there is fierce competition between the Congress party and the Aam Aadmi Party. Polls suggest fierce competition between the two parties. Polls suggest a hung legislature is likely.
