Barely 24 hours after Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Chief Arvind Kejriwal said he would announce the party’s CM face in Punjab, it launched a phone number — 70748 70748 — for people to choose a candidate.
Ruling himself out of the Punjab CM-face race, the Delhi CM said people of Punjab should call/ message or WhatsApp to give their choice of CM candidate. “We want to leave the choice to the 3 crore people of Punjab. The people can give us their choice by 5 pm, January 17.” This is the first time such a methodology is being used to identify a CM candidate by popular vote," he said.
