BJP's strategy has been to pick outsiders as CM: Will Delhi buck the trend?

Quick Summary:

But that wasn’t the case in the Assembly polls held in December 2013, the first occasion that Modi was the party’s lead campaigner.

Similarly, in 2014, when the party picked the Punjabi Khattar as Haryana CM, he was termed an 'outsider' in the Jat-dominated state.

In Gujarat in 2021, a year ahead of Assembly elections in the state, the BJP replaced Vijay Rupani with Bhupendra Patel, a first-term MLA.
