The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is considering to contest the civic polls in UP next year. The party leadership has communicated to the state unit to begin preparations in 15 cities where civic polls will be held after the Assembly polls. While the AAP will most likely stay out of the Assembly polls, it is hoping to strengthen its organisational structure in at least 15 cities where the civic polls are slated to be held.
