February 16, 2015 | By Parmjeet Singh

Chandigarh: Aam Aadmi Party’s senior leader and political thinker Yogendra Yadav declared that Delhi’s ruling party want to stretch it’s arms across Indian subcontinent. He said that the Aam Aadmi Party has short-term and long-term strategies for this purpose.

He said that the Aam Aadmi Party will raise and strengthen its base in other parts/ states of Indian subcontinent in next three to five years. AAP has put Punjab under special focus and the party will discuss to contest 2017 state assembly elections in Punjab.

It is notable the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) was surprised by the people of Punjab with four Lok Sabha seats, whereas the party was not able to win even a single seat in rest of India during last Lok Sabha elections. AAP had lost all 7 seats in Delhi, which was considered to be it’s strong-hold. Aam Aadmi Party’s recent resurgence in Delhi is expected to affect dynamics of vote politics in Punjab where Badal-BJP combine is likely to face strong anti-incumbency factor.
