AAP Delhi convenor Gopal Rai on Friday announced the ‘ Mera booth sabse mazboot ’ campaign, which will be launched to strengthen the party.

Mr. Rai said the campaign will be launched by the AAP at a State-wide convention, scheduled to be held at Punjabi Bagh Club on Sunday. The announcement comes after a three-week feedback exercise undertaken by Mr. Rai with various stakeholders of AAP’s Delhi unit.

Organisational structure

“The party leadership completed the exercise with newly-elected councillors, candidates who contested the municipal elections, all the MLAs and party office-bearers,” Mr. Rai said.

He also announced that the AAP was altering it organisational structure by introducing the role of a mandal adhyaksh for each polling station, apart from the existing structure right from the booth, ward, Assembly and district levels.

Stating that all mandal adhyaksh positions will be filled before the convention, he said other office-bearers and the new appointees will also be invited to the event.

“The party has decided that every single person associated with the party — whether the CM, other Ministers or office-bearers — will have to take charge of organisational building in their own polling booth...This is based on feedback that despite performing well the party was unable to communicate its message in every gali-mohalla of the city. This will encourage dialogue and will open channels of communication for improving performance,” he added.
