Naga leader Asu Keyho makes it to AAP star campaigners list for Mizoram polls. He is expected to swing youth and Christian voters in support of AAP candidates.

 The party has released its list of star campaigners for the fast approaching assembly polls in Mizoram.

AAP general secretary In Charge North East Rajesh Sharma is also in the list.

 Asu Keyho is president of Nagaland unit and his inclusion is indicative of AAP leadership appreciating the fact that Mizoram too is a Christian dominated state.


 Keyho is a former Naga Students Federation leader and is expected to swing youth voters.


AAP northeast in-charge Rajesh Sharma said, “AAP has nominated four highly educated young leaders from Mizoram. We never thought that we would be able to establish our party in a State like Mizoram this soon.”

“We can be sure to eradicate corruption from Mizoram if we bring good people into politics who are willing to work for the state with good intent,” he added.

The party has fielded AAP state president Andrew Lalremkima from Aizawl North III, while Vanlalmawia Vanchhawwng, Biakthianghlima and Lalngaihawma Pachau will contest from Aizawl West I, Aizawl West III and Aizawl South I respectively.

For the Aizawl North-III seat, the party has fielded AAP state president Andrew Lalremkima against incumbent Mizoram National Front’s C Lalmuanpuia.


AAP’s state secretary Joseph Biakthianghlima has been fielded in the high-stakes Aizawl West-III seat.
