Manish Sisodia's release gives life to Aam Aadmi, how much will Delhi's politics change?
What will change in Delhi and AAP politics after Manish Sisodia comes out of jail? The question has been in the headlines ever since Delhi's former deputy chief minister got bail in the Supreme Court. Sisodia has been granted bail in the liquor scam case with only 7 months left for the capital assembly elections. Assembly elections will be held in February 2025 for 70 constituencies in Delhi. Aam Aadmi Party's main competition here is with Bharatiya Janata Party. The Congress party is also busy making the election a three-way contest. Has Sisodia been your lifesaver? Arvind Kejriwal and No-2 Manish Sisodia are considered as the number-1 leader of Aam Aadmi Party in Delhi politics. Both the leaders have been in jail for the past 4 months. Now that Sisodia has been granted bail, it is seen as a lifeline for the Aam Aadmi Party. 3 reasons for this – 1. Manish Sisodia is a leader among people like Arvind Kejriwal. He is adept at mobilizing crowds and conveying messages to people through his speeches. When the Aam Aadmi Party formed its first government in 2013, Kejriwal made Sisodia the Deputy Chief Minister. Sisodia was the Deputy Chief Minister until he went to jail. 2. Sisodia was a founder member of AAP. He knows everything from election fighting strategy to workers. Apart from this, his work in connection with schools in Delhi is commendable. Sisodia has made this an issue after coming out of jail. 3. Sisodia's bail has brought Delhi politics back to an emotional pitch. Aam Aadmi Party will also get emotional through Sisodia and make Arvind's jail time a problem. Sisodia also said that party workers should go to people and tell about Kejriwal. What will change in Delhi politics? Question about changes within Delhi and Aam Aadmi Party. Before going to jail, Sisodia was the Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi. He held major departments like education and excise. In this case, the question has arisen whether he can become the Deputy Chief Minister again. While speaking at the AAP headquarters, Sisodia also hinted at this. He said, “I was imprisoned to destroy my power, but I am doubly powerful among you.” Now more schools will be built. This is also being discussed as assembly elections are due in Delhi in a few months. The Aam Aadmi Party has not said anything about Sisodia becoming Deputy Chief Minister or not. Arvind Kejriwal is in jail because of this. A deputy chief minister or a minister can only be appointed on the recommendation of the chief minister. It is not easy to remove this order from prison. Apart from this, two more changes are being discussed. 1. AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal is currently in jail. In such a situation, Manish Sisodia can now take charge of election campaign instead of Kejriwal. Sisodia has also announced the campaign at the Delhi headquarters. He said Aam Aadmi Party should raise the slogan Quit Totalitarian India in every street. 2. Arvind Kejriwal's petition comes up for hearing in the High Court on September 5. In the last hearing, the High Court had asked several questions to the enforcement department. Your view is now under hearing on September 5th. Only then will the picture of change become clear. Will Sisodia's release increase BJP's tension? The Bharatiya Janata Party is the main opposition party in Delhi and has been very vocal about the liquor scandal so far, but the way the Supreme Court has commented on the Sanjay Singh and now the Manish Sisodia cases, the BJP is on the back foot. Front foot. Sisodia's bail has also added to BJP's tension. However, the BJP is trying to portray Sisodia's bail as an ordinary bail, but the Aam Aadmi Party is gearing up to demand a 17-month account on the issue. Manish Sisodia spent 17 months in jail. Addressing the workers, Delhi Aam Aadmi Party leader Gopal Rai said BJP says Sisodia got bail but we say this Supreme Court verdict is a license to confiscate BJP's bail.
