AAP Releases Final Candidate List for Delhi Elections: Kejriwal to Face High-Stakes Battle in Delhi

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has unveiled its fourth and final list of 38 candidates for the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections. Arvind Kejriwal, the party's chief, will once again contest from the high-profile New Delhi constituency, a seat he won in 2013 and 2015. This marks a crucial moment in the Delhi political landscape, with intense competition expected, particularly with Congress fielding Sandeep Dikshit, son of the late Sheila Dikshit. As AAP makes its final preparations, the battle for Delhi intensifies with significant strategic shifts, including the replacement of several sitting MLAs. #AAP #DelhiElections2025 #ArvindKejriwal #NewDelhiConstituency #DelhiPolitics #ElectionBattle #AAPFinalList #SandeepDikshit #DelhiAssembly #PoliticalRivalries #DelhiPolls #IndianPolitics #ElectionUpdates
