2022 Delhi civic polls

The Delhi civic polls for the North Delhi Municipal Corporation, South Delhi Municipal Corporation and East Delhi Municipal Corporation are scheduled to be held in April 2022. Both the AAP and the BJP have been trying their best to prove their competence concerning the approaching civic polls. 

Asserting that people want a change at the helm in Delhi municipal corporations, the AAP had previously announced that it will launch a massive campaign to oust the BJP in the 2022 civic body polls. The Delhi BJP subjecting to the claim had instantly hit back, saying that the AAP was free to make claims but the people have seen how the Arvind Kejriwal-led city government failed them during the COVID-19 pandemic and the Centre came to their aid.

On the AAP's plan to strengthen its organizational structure, as BJP leader had attested that the AAP was just a bunch of manipulators who have won two (assembly) elections by misleading people.
