Babar not to campaign

New Delhi: Upset over denial of party ticket, Congress stalwart and three-time MLA Tajdar Babar on Thursday announced that she would not campaign for the party in the elections. The 72-year-old leader lost the race for Congress nomination from Jangpura seat to another sitting MLA Tarvinder Singh Marwah after hectic lobbying.

“I will not campaign in Delhi as I will be out of the city for couple of weeks,” Ms. Babar, a former president of Delhi Congress, said.
