Delhi's ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Thursday said that businessman Sushil Gupta, one of its Rajya Sabha candidates, will help the party expand and accomplish its "Mission Haryana". AAP Delhi convenor Gopal Rai took up to Facebook Live to justify the party's decision of electing the two outsiders -- Narain Dass Gupta and Sushil Gupta - as its candidates for Rajya Sabha seats which triggered criticism from opposition parties.
