By our Special Correspondent

From AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal to his long-time loyalist Manish Sisodia, riots accused Tahir Hussain and Shifa-ur Rehman, several candidates in fray for Delhi Assembly polls have been to jail in connection with different cases, including corruption and riots.

                According to political experts, candidates having been to jail at some point, does not necessarily affect their popularity as politicians. In some cases, if a politician does benefit in terms of public sympathy by being jailed, it does not necessarily translate into votes.
