Delhi election: It's AAP's Atishi vs BJP's Ramesh Bidhuri vs Congress' Alka Lamba in Kalkaji

Hindustan Times  

Former Lok Sabha MP Ramesh Bidhuri will be the Bharatiya Janata Party's candidate for the Kalkaji constituency in the upcoming Delhi assembly election, with the declaration of his candidature setting the stage for a contest involving three high-profile names. Meanwhile, Ramesh Bidhuri's nomination marks his political comeback after the BJP denied him a ticket for the Lok Sabha elections, held between April and June last year. Bidhuri, who won from the South Delhi constituency in the 2014 and 2019 Lok Sabha elections, was replaced by Ramvir Singh Bidhuri, who would retain the seat for the saffron party. In September 2023, Ramesh Bidhuri, who is also a former three-term MLA of the Tughlakabad assembly constituency, stoked a major controversy when he hurled alleged communal slurs at then Bahujan Samaj Party lawmaker Danish Ali.
