Welcoming the move, Delhi Congress President Arvinder Singh Lovely said Chopra has considerable experience in planning the strategy and roadmap for the parliamentary elections, and his experience would be hugely beneficial in the general elections in Delhi. “We would mount an aggressive campaign to expose the failures of the BJP MPs from Delhi and the BJP government in the past 10 years, and would spare no effort in winning the Lok Sabha seats in Delhi,” he added.
