New Delhi: Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesperson Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga will contest from Hari Nagar, though he was reportedly keen on Tilak Nagar.
This morning, he posted: “How’s the Josh #Bagga4HariNagar”. The tweet included a campaign song with the words: “Bagga, Bagga har jagah“. The lyrics are all about his role in various Delhi campaigns. The hashtag #Bagga4HariNagar soon became the top trend on Twitter.

“BJP will win more than 50 seats in the upcoming Assembly elections. Kejriwal ji is afraid of this. That is why documents were burnt at Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) office, 15 days before the polls,” Mr Bagga told news agency ANI. A fire broke out at Delhi’s Transport Department on Monday; all documents were burnt, senior fire official Sunil Chaudhary had said.
In its first list released on January 17, BJP named 20 new faces among 57 candidates. Mr Bagga’s name was missing, which produced thousands of tweets with the hashtag #DontCryBagga.
Voting for the 70-member Delhi assembly will be held on February 8. The results will be declared three days later.
