Delhi Congress chief Subhash Chopra also denied that there was no such proposal from the party to Asha Devi. Chopra told ANI, "I saw a media report that Asha Devi-mother of 2012 Delhi gang-rape victim- will contest against Arvind Kejriwal on Congress ticket. There is nothing of that sort but she is welcome if she wants to join."
