Delhi Assembly Elections: The Congress has prepared its second list of 43 candidates for the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections.

As per the list, the party has decided to field former woman and child development minster Dr Kiran Walia against Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal from New Delhi constituency.

Confirming the development to Mail Today, Walia said: “New Delhi constituency has seen some great work being carried out under the guidance of former chief minister Sheila (Dikshit) ji. Even Ajay Maken ji has supported the constituency. So I am bound to get the benefit of all the work they have done in the past. I am happy and equally excited to contest the elections from this seat. Fighting against Kejriwal is not even an issue. I had defeated former Delhi chief minister Sushma Swaraj when I fought against her a few years back.”

Though the party is yet to officially announce the second list of the candidates, Mail Today has got details of the list from senior leaders of the party. This year, one of the biggest additions to the party’s list is the name of the daughter of President Pranab Mukherjee, Sharmishtha Mukherjee, who has already kick-started her campaign by holding public meetings in Greater Kailash.
