Speaking to this newspaper, Anwar said the party should take decisions on the selection of candidates and seats early as elections are only six months away. "We have only six months in hand. The party shouldn't keep crucial decisions for the last minute. We should learn lessons from electoral debacles in Maharashtra, Delhi, and Haryana and work hard," said Anwar.
