Two Punjab MLAs resigned from the Aam Aadmi Party after their names were omitted from the first list of 40 candidates released for the 2027 Assembly elections.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Punjab has faced a significant setback as two sitting Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) resigned from the party. The resignation came shortly after the party released its first list of 40 candidates for the upcoming 2027 Punjab Assembly elections.
According to reports, the two MLAs were dissatisfied because their names were not included in the initial candidate slate. This omission from the first batch of nominees appears to have triggered their decision to leave the party membership.
The development is seen as a notable challenge for the AAP in Punjab ahead of the 2027 polls. The party had finalized the first list of 40 names, but the absence of these two legislators from the roster led to their immediate withdrawal from the organization.
No further details regarding the specific reasons beyond the ticket denial or the identities of the two MLAs were provided in the initial reports. The political landscape in Punjab may see further developments as the party continues to finalize its candidate lists for the 2027 elections.
