Is Kejriwal Getting Ready For RS Seat?

Chandigarh: With the fielding of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Rajya Sabha MP Sanjeev Arora as its candidate for the Ludhiana (West) Assembly byelection, speculations are rife over party’s supremo Arvind Kejriwal to get entry into the Rajya Sabha from Punjab, if the former wins the seat. However, the party had denied that Kejriwal is moving to the Rajya Sabha.

By fielding the sitting MP, rumours are getting strengthened that Kejriwal, who just faced humiliating defeat not only of his party but also his own seat in Delhi Assembly elections, is going to the Rajya Sabha in Arora’s place. Kejriwal lost the New Delhi seat to BJP’s Parvesh Verma by over 4,000 votes in the just concluded Assembly elections.
