The BJP will hold crucial meetings today to finalise the names of the candidates it will field for the Delhi elections with former cop and new entrant Kiran Bedi being the frontrunner for the party's CM candidate.

Most leaders have reportedly welcomed her entry into the party, but insiders said not everyone is quite convinced that it would be a politically canny move, reports NDTV.

Sources said the panel is expected to announce a campaign committee for Delhi, which could be headed by Bedi. It is also said to be looking for sure-shot seat for Bedi.
