The BJP candidate from Rajouri Garden, Manjinder Singh Sirsa, today filed his nomination papers with the Rampura SDM, Amit Kumar. His wife Satwinder Kaur Sirsa filed papers as his covering candidate.

Before leaving for the SDM office, Sirsa visited a local gurdwara to take blessing of Guru Granth Sahib.

Addressing the gathering, Sirsa thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP national president Amit Shah for nominating him to contest this by-election. 

He said as the whole country was witnessing the pro-Modi and pro-BJP waive, in this election too people will vote for the BJP which alone is capable of carrying on with the development works in the area.
