BJP final list out: Workers up in arms over candidate selection

The Delhi BJP released its final list of 100 candidates for the MCD polls Monday, hours before the window to file nominations closed. Just like the first list of 160 candidates released a day earlier, the final list, too, featured many state- and district-level leaders, their close aides, and even wives. The candidate selection prompted protests from many party workers, who felt they deserved a ticket and were unfairly denied one. Many of them headed to the BJP’s Delhi office, shouting slogans.
