Arvind Kejriwal To Address Public Rally In Gujarat

Kejriwal's second visit to Rajkot!


On Monday, 01 August 2022, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will address a public rally at Veraval and offer prayers at a temple in Rajkot in Gujarat's Saurashtra region, a party official said.

This will be Mr. Kejriwal's second visit to Rajkot in a week and fourth to the poll-bound state in a month.

The AAP national convener will address a public meeting in the Saurashtra region and make an important announcement regarding the upcoming Assembly election, Gujarat AAP's general secretary Manoj Sorathiya said.

"Arvind Kejriwal will arrive at Porbandar airport at 1 pm. From there, he will leave for Veraval in Gir Somnath district," he said.

The AAP chief will address a public meeting at KCC Ground (Railway Colony) at 3 pm in Veraval.

After addressing the rally, Kejriwal will travel to Rajkot, where he will take part in the Maha Aarti at a temple built on the grounds of Sanjay Rajguru College, and then he will leave for Delhi, Sorathiya said.

"For the people suffering due to inflation, AAP has launched a 'Muft Bijli' campaign. If people in Delhi and Punjab can get free electricity, then why not those in Gujarat?" he asked.

On Monday, Kejriwal will hold a town hall on "free electricity," nearly two weeks after the party launched a state-wide stir demanding free electricity for domestic consumers from the BJP government, he said.

The party's "guarantee card," or election manifesto for Gujarat Assembly polls scheduled in December will be the part of the discussion, Gadhvi added.

The AAP accused the ruling party of misleading people by saying that the citizens of Gujarat do not need free electricity as he referred to a statement made by BJP's state unit president C R Paatil.
