AAP says BJP has surrendered ahead of polls

After the BJP released its second list of candidates and fielded Sunil Yadav against Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal from the New Delhi Assembly seat, ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) said the saffron party has surrendered before the polls.

"Going by this list and BJP candidate against CM Kejriwal , it seems, BJP has surrendered," AAP spokesperson Saurabh Bharadwaj tweeted on Tuesday.

He added that the ruling AAP will win all the 70 seats in the February 8 Assembly elections.

Late last night, the BJP released its final list and named Sunil Yadav from the New Delhi Assembly constituency.

Yadav is a young face, who is the state President of the Delhi unit of the BJP's Yuva Morcha -- Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha.

The saffron party is banking on his youth appeal while putting him against one of the most formidable candidates of this poll season -- Kejriwal.IANS
