 "Ashutosh files papers from Chandni Chowk")
Aam Aadmi Party candidate Ashutosh Srivastava today filed his nomination papers from Chandni Chowk Lok Sabha constituency.
After filing his nomination papers, Ashutosh, a journalist turned politician, said that AAP was going to win all seven Lok Sabha seats in the national capital.
Asked if he was confident of winning despite prominent leaders like Harsh Vardhan and Kapil Sibal contesting elections from the same seat, he only said "both leaders are prominent, but they were (not now)".
Ashutosh alleged that social media and opinion polls are being manipulated to create a wave in favour of a particular person, adding that there should be probe into such allegations to find out who are behind this.
"Our dream is to make country corruption-free. I am very confident that I will win elections from Chandni Chowk," he added.

Ashutosh also rejected the concept of a Modi wave in the country. "I don't think that Modi's wave is everywhere in the country. BJP had also seen such wave in 2004, but what happened at that time you know very well," he said.
