AAP names Bhagwant Mann as CM face in Punjab

January 18, 2022 12:28

AAP names Bhagwant Mann as chief minister candidate for Punjab based on public votes.

A video of Bhagwant Mann's life and times is being shared on stage as the announcement is made at the Mohali stadium.

Mann represents the Sangrur Lok Sabha constituency and is a two-time MP.

As far as the Congress is concerned, the infighting continues and the AAP has stolen a march over Charanjit Singh Channi and his team.

Aam Aadmi Party national convener Arvind Kejriwal last week said his party would be asking the general public as to who should be the party's chief ministerial face in the Punjab Assembly polls, even as he indicated that his own preference for the post was state unit president Bhagwant Mann.

The Delhi chief minister, in the presence of AAP's Punjab unit president and MP Mann and party senior leader Raghav Chadha, had launched a mobile number on which people can give their feedback by 5 pm till January 17 by recording their option, or sending an SMS or WhatsApp as to who among the party leaders they want to be declared as the chief ministerial candidate.
