Earlier this week, the AAP released the names of 23 candidates for the Rajasthan elections scheduled to be held on November 25. In the first list, the AAP named Dr Harish Raheja as the contestant from the Ganganagar seat. Raheja will fight against BJP's Jaydeep Bihani, who fought the 2018 polls as an independent after being denied a ticket by the Congress. 

The Aam Aadmi Party is looking to make inroads in Rajasthan with the 2023 assembly elections with several poll promises. AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal last month promised 8 "guarantees" if the party came to power: Rs 1,000 allowance to women, Rs 1 crore honorarium to widows of police personnel, elimination of corruption, 300 units of free electricity which will be available 24 hours, free education for children, free healthcare for every citizen, and regularisation of contractual workers' employment.

The party had to bear a crushing defeat in the 2018 assembly polls. Before the upcoming elections, big faces are being inducted into the party. Last week, BJP leader Shivnarayan Dwivedi joined the Aam Aadmi Party. Now, speculations are being made that the party may give a big responsibility to Shivnarayan Dwivedi.
