The AAP will launch its manifesto for the upcoming Delhi elections on Monday which is expected to feature all its poll promises with the party vying to secure a full third term even as riding on an anti-incumbency wave.

In the realm of monetary benefits, the AAP has already introduced the Mahila Samman Yojana, offering Rs 2100 to eligible women.

AAP has pledged Rs 1 lakh for auto drivers' daughters' marriages and insurance schemes for auto drivers. Additionally, the ruling party has promised free bus travel for women and students. It has also promised to continue its scheme of free electricity up to 200 units and promised to give a 50 per cent subsidy rebate if the total consumption in a month goes above 200 units.
The party has also promised to cover tenants in Delhi under its free electricity and water scheme. The AAP chief also announced that if AAP retains power in Delhi, Resident Welfare Associations (RWA) will be given money to hire private security guards.
The BJP has already released its manifesto in three parts with the Union Health Minister and party president J P Nadda, Lok Sabha MP Anurag Thakur and Union Home Minister Amit Shah releasing the first, second and third part of the manifesto respectively.
