Delhi BJP to come out with list of candidates after Modi rally

The Delhi BJP on Wednesday announced that it would be coming out with a comprehensive list of candidates for the coming assembly polls after the 29 September rally at Japanese Park in Rohini.

This election rally will be addressed by Narendra Modi and is likely to be attended by more than 4 lakh people. Delhi BJP president Vijay Goel said in a statement issued on Wednesday, ‘As all the party functionaries are working overtime to make the 29 September rally a historic success which is currently the main focus of all party activities, so we will come out with our list of candidates for the coming assembly polls after 29 September.’

Millennium Post in a report dated 11 September had written that Modi’s rally would create a delay in the announcement of poll candidates. Earlier, BJP president Vijay Goel had said that the list of candidates would be announced on 15 September.

Goel reiterated that as Delhi election in-charge Nitin Gadkari has stated, the criteria for selecting the candidates will be based on winnability. ‘We are confident that in the true tradition of a cadre-based party, once the candidates are announced, all party cadres and functionaries will work together for ensuring a historic victory in Delhi assembly polls to end 15 years of Congress misrule.’

Meanwhile, slamming the Congress government’s mismanagement leading to skyrocketing of onion prices, Goel who undertook a ‘village padyatra’ in several villages in Shahbad-Daulatpur area said, ‘Onions are selling at a price of Rs 70-80 a kg in Delhi’s retail markets for almost two months. The 600 onion stalls claimed to have been put up by the Delhi government to sell cheaper onions are hardly visible on the ground.’
