Senior Congress leader Kapil Sibal has said he will “certainly contest” from Delhi’s Chandni Chowk seat in the Lok Sabha, irrespective of whether there is an alliance between his party and AAP.
Sibal had won twice from Chandni Chowk in 2004 and 2009 before losing to BJP leader Harsh Vardhan in 2014. Asked about his views whether there should be an alliance between the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Delhi, Sibal told PTI: “I don’t know that is for the party to decide. There are two views within the party.”
“I will certainly contest the Chandni Chowk seat, alliance or no alliance,” the 70-year-old leader asserted.
