All four candidates of Aam Aadmi Party contesting elections from four urban constituencies in Mysuru, including Chamundeshwari, on Wednesday expressed confidence of winning the polls from their respective constituencies.
District AAP president Rangaiah, who was present with the candidates here, told a press conference that AAP has taken the elections seriously and fielded 212 candidates in the State. AAP has given highest number of 17 women the ticket. All three candidates contesting the Mysuru urban seats were women, he said.
“There was a delay in recognizing AAP as a national party and for that, we had to approach the court. Therefore, our initial campaign was low key but AAP is here to stay. After this election, we will face all coming elections with increased enthusiasm and expand its grass root-level presence in the State,” he said while replying to a query on the party’s presence after the polls.
