Eight Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLAs resigned after being denied tickets for the Delhi election. The legislators—Girish Soni, Rohit Mehraulia, Madan Lal, Rajesh Rishi, Naresh Yadav, Bhavna Gaur, Pawan Kumar Sharma, and BS Joon—cited lost faith in Arvind Kejriwal’s leadership. Some accused AAP of corruption, abandoning its founding principles, and neglecting marginalized communities. AAP dropped 20 incumbents and fielded turncoats from BJP and Congress. The Delhi election is on February 5, with results on February 8. The resignations raise questions about AAP’s internal stability before the polls.
