Punjab Assembly Elections: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has released its second list of 31 candidates for the Punjab assembly elections. The ruling party stated that the candidates were finalized after multiple extensive surveys. Earlier in October, AAP had released its first list of 40 candidates; however, its three MLAs exited the party soon after the announcement. While talking to the reporters, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann stated that the names will positively surprise the voters, adding that multiple factors were considered before the final announcement.
