A similar syndrome has gripped Delhi state Bharatiya Janata Party as far as contesting the assembly polls go. In the midst of all heat and dust raised by the release and resignation of former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and elevation of his trusted aide Atishi as Chief Minister, one may have missed out on the talk of the BJP leadership planning to pitch former Union Minister Smriti Irani as the face of the party in the polls in February-March next year.

Irani, who was born and raised in Delhi, has been actively participating in the party's membership drive, launched on September 2. She is overseeing the drive in seven of the 14 district units in the city."
