Delhi MCD polls 2017: On last day of nominations, some rush, some rage

A tussle over seats may have been the reason for the inordinate delay in the BJP declaring its candidates for the April 23 MCD polls, highly placed sources told The Indian Express. For two nights, party leaders sat till early morning, debating over who was most eligible for each seat. On Sunday night, the Delhi BJP team, including co-in charge Tarun Chugh, organisational secretary Siddharthan, Delhi unit chief Manoj Tiwari and several parliamentarians sat through the night, selecting candidates.
