Congress takes on AAP: Veteran Farhad Suri to challenge Sisodia in Jangpura

New Indian Express  

NEW DELHI: The Congress party has fielded veteran leader and former Delhi Mayor Farhad Suri against AAP stalwart and former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia in the Jangpura assembly constituency. The party’s Central Election Committee finalized the names during a meeting chaired by Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, with former party chief Rahul Gandhi and other senior leaders participating via video conference. The grand old party is also considering former MLA and All India Mahila Congress chief Alka Lamba to contest against Delhi Chief Minister Atishi from the Kalkaji constituency. The first list, released last Thursday, included 21 names, notably featuring former MP Sandeep Dikshit, who is set to take on AAP’s Arvind Kejriwal in the New Delhi constituency.
