Earlier, AAP had released three lists covering 32 candidates, including a solitary name in its third list, Tarun Yadav, who will contest from Najafgarh. Yadav replaces Kailash Gehlot, the former AAP MLA who recently defected to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Taking to X, Kejriwal expressed confidence in the party's preparedness for the polls and said, "Today, Aam Aadmi Party announced candidates for all 70 seats. The party is contesting the elections with full confidence and preparation."
He also took a jab at the BJP, accusing it of lacking leadership and direction in the state. "The BJP is missing. They have no CM face, no team, no planning, and no vision for Delhi. Their only slogan and policy is 'Remove Kejriwal.' Ask them what they did in the last five years, and they will reply, 'Gave Kejriwal many abuses,'" he quipped.
