Union Minister and senior Congress leader Kapil Sibal is a worried man these days. While he was already facing a tough contest after delimitation of his Chandni Chowk constituency, a UPA constituent has only made it tougher. Ram Vilas Paswan’s Lok Janashakti Party (LJP) has declared Shoaib Iqbal, its lone MLA from Delhi, as its candidate for the Chandni Chowk Lok Sabha seat. Sibal is desperately calling the LJP leader with a request to withdraw his candidate. Sibal fears Iqbal, with a reasonable support in the constituency, could upset his chances. Defiant LJP leaders say that the Congress had left no stone unturned to defeat Iqbal in the recent Delhi polls.URL- http://www.indianexpress.com/story_print.php?storyid=417851
A strong candidate like Kapil Sibal wrrying about his seat shows that LJP has really gained power
ReplyDeleteI think instead of Iqbal withdrawing Kapil Sibal should withdraw as he has not done anything for the development of old delhi
ReplyDeleteA muslim candidate would prove to be a boon for an area like Chandani CHowk with has maximum muslim population......we welcome the LJP candidate
ReplyDeleteI am confident of Kapil Sibal's win come what may he would win the Chandani Chowk seat.....
ReplyDeleteI dont agree with Deepti........I think Iqbal has better chances of a win
