Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal has pitted Himmat Singh Shergill against Cabinet minister Bikram Singh Majithia in the Assembly elections. The SAD has fielded Majithia from Majitha.

The announcement was made at Majha Fateh Rally.  AAP volunteers from Malwa and Doaba reportedly turned up in large numbers.

The Delhi Chief Minister proposed the candidature of Shergill from the dais and sought public’s nod. “Our candidate will hand out a convincing defeat to Majithia.”

Shergill is a lawyer at the Punjab and Haryana High Court and party’s legal cell in charge. Earlier, he was fielded from Mohali.

“We have all gathered here to uproot Majithia from his constituency. The massive gathering gives me confidence that Majithia will forfeit his deposit,” Kejriwal said.

In Majithia’s home turf, he again referred to the criminal defamation case registered against him by the minister in an Amritsar court. And again dared Majithia to get him arrested before the elections otherwise “the public will catch hold of him from the collar and put him behind the bars for flourishing drugs trade in Punjab”.

The Delhi Chief Minister accused Majithia of having links with the drug mafia for the past 10 years.
