New Delhi: In a bizarre incident, the BJP manifesto released on Friday carries the name of former Congress MLA and Delhi minister Raj Kumar Chauhan in the list of party's manifesto committee members.
Interestingly, Chauhan's name also features in the Congress party's star campaigner's list for Delhi Assembly elections sent to the Election Commission.
Chauhan, a four-time MLA and a three-term minister in Sheila Dikshit cabinet, had joined BJP in May last year, but later returned to the Congress party's fold.
The Delhi Assembly election 2020 will be held on February 8 and the results will be announced on February 11.
It will be a three-cornered contest this time between the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), the BJP and the Congress. Present Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP saw a thumping win in 2015 Assembly elections with the party bagging 67 seats, leaving just three (seats) for the BJP.
