LS poll: No tickets for incumbent legislators, says Arvind Kejriwal

He, however, did not make it clear whether he was speaking about legislators of other parties or Independents, including from Delhi.

The AAP made its debut with 28 seats in the Delhi assembly elections. It ran the city government for 49 days with outside support of the Congress, but later the government resigned on the issue of Jan Lokpal bill.

The party is all set for the Lok Sabha polls and has announced a list of 20 candidates.
