“An informal meeting was held in which a few members, including Kejriwal, have been shortlisted to contest the polls. But, the constituency is yet to be finalized,” he told IANS.
Sisodia also told IANS that Kejriwal will soon write to Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit to accept 10 lakh protest forms which were filled by the people, during his 15 days of fast against inflated power and water bills.
