The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has formed a three-member committee led by spokesperson Atishi to prepare its manifesto for the upcoming Assembly election in Delhi.
Senior AAP leader Gopal Rai said that AAP spokesperson and former IPS officer Ajoy Kumar, and vice chairperson on the Dialogue and Development Commission of Delhi and an alumnus of Columbia University Jasmine Shah will also be part of the committee.
The manifesto is likely to be released between January 15 and 20, he said, adding that the vision of the party in the next five years will be highlighted in it. "For our manifesto, suggestions from town halls, door-to-door campaign and 'mohalla sabhas' have been taken and they all will be evaluated to include in the manifesto," Rai said.
He also said that 90 per cent people are happy with the work done by the AAP- Government in Delhi in the last five year. Even, supporters of the BJP and Congress party are praising the government for developing health and education infrastructure in the city, he said.
Talking about party's door to door campaign, he said that the 60, 000 party leaders and workers have reached to approx 30 lakh houses with our report card. As the date of election has been announced and people are waiting for February 8 to exercise their franchise, we are all prepared to convey our positive works during campaigning.
The election to the 70-member Delhi Assembly will take place on February 8 and results will be declared on February 11. The AAP Government led by Arvind Kejriwal is expecting to reap rich dividends on the basis of its performance and the works done in various fields, whereas its main political rival Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has come out with all guns blazing to corner Kejriwal.
Chief Election Commissioner Sunil Arora said the notification for the polls will be issued on January 14, while the last date of withdrawal of candidature will be January 24.
