The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has fielded its controversial spokesperson Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga from Hari Nagar in the 2020 Delhi elections. Often branded a “troll”, Bagga was appointed as a spokesperson by Delhi BJP in 2017. Bagga, however, told The Caravan that he was targeted. Like several other party leaders, he has also attacked the protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) at Shaheen Bagh. He said a “surgical strike” will be launched against Shaheen Bagh on 11 February, when the results for the Delhi elections will be announced.
