In order to solve problems faced by auto rickshaw drivers, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has decided to constitute auto rickshaw wings in all the constituencies.

“The party has decided to constitute auto wings in all constituencies of Delhi and the responsibility to complete this process has been given to Gaurav Singh as the president and Adil Ahmad Khan and Manoj Mathur as vice-presidents,” senior party leader Gopal Rai said on Wednesday.

The AAP has been conducting a survey in this regard for the past week to identifying the persisting issues of auto drivers that still need redressal, he said,” adding that the existing auto wings of the seven Lok Sabha seats will continue to operate and in addition, the in-charges of all the major auto stands including the ones in Kashmiri Gate, ISBT, New Delhi, Old Delhi, Anand Vihar, Nizamuddin, Sarai Kale Khan, Karnal, Dholakua and Kausambi will be included.

He further said that heads of all major stations shall also be made members of our committee of 35 members. A standing committee will be formed at every assembly constituency,” he added

Talking about an alliance with the JJP (Jannayak Janta Party) for the upcoming Assembly elections in Haryana, Rai ruled out an alliance with the party after analyzing political situation in the state.

Rai said the state unit has been asked to prepare a report on the political scenario in the state. “After the Lok Sabha elections, we analysed the political situation and we have decided to contest the upcoming elections without forming any alliance in the state,” he said.

The assembly elections in Haryana are due in October 2019.The Aam Aadmi Party and the Jannayak Janata Party (JJP) fought the elections together on all 10 Lok Sabha seats in Haryana.

The AAP fought on four seats while the JJP on six seats. However, there was a clean sweep by the BJP on all the constituencies.

The JJP was launched last year by former Haryana chief minister Om Prakash Chautala’s grandson Dushyant Chautala, following a power struggle in the state’s main opposition Indian National Lok Dal.
