As 2019 Lok Sabha elections are approaching the nation, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has planned a mega two-phase campaign strategy involving nearly three lakh volunteers to reach out to the people.

The AAP has planned to conduct a door-to-door campaign to reach out to people in seven Lok Sabha constituencies in the national capital. The first phase of the campaign will be conducted in the first in November-December while the second phase will start in March-April 2019, party’s Delhi unit convener Gopal Rai told reporters.

In case the elections are preponed, the second round of the mega door-to-door campaign will be held in the months of January and February next year, Rai said, according to PTI.

“We will highlight the achievements of the party-led government in Delhi, besides focussing on failures and misrule of the BJP government at the Centre during the campaign,” he said.

The party has already announced the names of its in-charges for five of the seven constituencies in the national capital.

The party will appoint 2.5 lakh volunteers as block pramukh (head) to ensure direct and effective contact with voters in around 25,000 polling booths in all parliamentary seats.

Monitoring of work done by the block pramukh will be done through 272 ward observers. The top leadership of the AAP will ensure smooth functioning of ward and booth-level workers, he said.
