In a surprise move, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has named former WWE wrestler Kavita Dalal as its candidate for the Julana Assembly seat in Haryana. Dalal will face off against Congress's Vinesh Phogat, an Olympic wrestler, and BJP's Captain Yogesh Bairagi, a former commercial pilot. Dalal, India's first woman WWE signee, aims to attract Jat votes, leveraging her wrestling background. She emphasized her focus on addressing local issues, stating her fight is "not against Vinesh, but against the difficulties people face" in Julana. The announcement marks a strategic shift for AAP after alliance talks with Congress broke down.
