NEW DELHI: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Convenor and former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday filed his nomination for the New Delhi constituency. Before heading to the SDM office, Kejriwal visited the Valmiki Mandir and Prachin Hanuman Temple to seek blessings.

“Before filing my nomination today, I bowed my head at the feet of the Lord at Valmiki Mandir and Prachin Hanuman Temple, seeking blessings for Delhi’s prosperity, peace, and happiness. With the Lord’s grace, we will continue to promote honest and service-oriented politics for the people,” Kejriwal said in a statement.

Accompanied by senior AAP leaders, including Delhi Chief Minister Atishi, Kejriwal also led a march in the area before filing his nomination papers.

After filing his nomination, Kejriwal addressed the media, expressing gratitude for the support he has received over the years. “Today, I filed my nomination from New Delhi. Over the last 10 years, the love and blessings of the people of Delhi have inspired and strengthened me to work with dedication. I am confident that the people of Delhi will once again choose politics focused on work,” he said.

Kejriwal will face BJP’s Parvesh Sahib Singh and Congress’s Sandeep Dikshit in the upcoming elections. He highlighted the accomplishments of his government, including free electricity, water, and bus travel for women, while promising future initiatives such as a ₹2,100 monthly allowance for women.

Taking a dig at BJP’s Parvesh Sahib Singh, Kejriwal said, “Parvesh Verma thinks he can buy the people of Delhi with a pair of shoes. This is an insult to the people and democracy.”

The AAP leader expressed confidence in securing another overwhelming mandate, citing the trust of Delhi’s citizens in his governance.
