With Delhi Assembly Elections being around the corner, the Aam Aadmi Party has started examining the performance of its sitting MLAs. A party source reportedly informed that a 'report card' is being made for each MLA to evaluate the performance of the MLAs before the redistribution of tickets. 

The sitting MLAs will reportedly be evaluated based on his/ her performance, popularity, and image among the people of his constituency and state.

While interacting with a news agency, the party leader said, "we are conducting the performance survey on various levels of each MLA. It will be too early to say anything about the survey."  "It is very important to know what people are thinking about their leader. We will not repeat the faces if the leader has not worked or had a bad image," the party leader added.
