New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) candidate Ashutosh on Wednesday demanded the Election Commission to cancel the nomination of Union minister Kapil Sibal from Chandni Chowk. Ashutosh accused Sibal, the Congress candidate from the Chandni Chowk constituency, of distributing money among the electorate. Writing on Twitter, the AAP leader asked the EC to arrest those who were distributing money in Chandni Chowk.

I request EC to immediately intervene in Chandni Chowk and arrest those who are distributing money and cancel Sibbal's nomination.

Reacting to Ashutosh`s charge, Sibal said said that the AAP leader should file an FIR and provide evidence to prove his claim. “When you lose support then you make such baseless allegations. I will get him prosecuted again,” the Union minister said. “He is a novice in politics, he needs to learn a lot. All I can say is that I pity him,” Sibal added. Dr Harshvardhan (BJP) is the third key candidate from the constituency.
