New Delhi: After fielding controversial self-proclaimed godman Swami Om as the Lok Sabha candidate in election from the New Delhi constituency, several Hindu outfits have announced that they will fight against the AAP in at least five seats in Delhi.

Speaking to IANS on Saturday, Mukesh Jain of Dara Sena said the group had decided to launch the candidates due to the "anti-Hindu" stance of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. "We have launched Swami Om and throughout the country we have decided to field at least 50 candidates," he said. "In Delhi, we will field candidates in five seats."

Asked why they were not supporting the BJP, Jain said the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had its own limitations. "They are against Kejriwal, but are not as vocal. They have their own limitations. We are and will be vocal against Kejriwal," he said.
