Delhi convener, said the restructur­ing will start from Wednesday and will continue till August 20.

“A 15-day restructur­ing exercise will start from

Wednesday. The restructur­ing at district, assembly, ward, polling station and booth level also aims to strengthen the organisati­on,” Mr Rai said.

“We will review the works of our leaders at these five levels and then, the party will make a decision.Those who have done good work during the coronaviru­s pandemic will also be considered for new responsibi­lities,” the Aam Aadmi Party leader said.

The municipal elections will be held in 2022. In 2017, the Aam Aadmi Party lost the The Municipal Corporatio­n of Delhi (MCD) elections.

However, in the assembly elections this year, the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party had won 62 seats and the Bharatiya Janata Party bagged eight seats in the 70-member Delhi Assembly, while the Congress had drawn a blank.
