After the roadshow, the Kejriwal will also campaign in Dabwali, Rania, Bhiwani, Meham, Pundri, Kalayat, Rewari, Dadri, Assandh, Ballabgarh and Badra. “Arvind Kejriwal will campaign in 11 districts, where he will have 13 programmes,” Pathak said
The further campaign schedule of Kejriwal will be announced later, he added.
The AAP is contesting all 90 seats in Haryana after talks with the Congress over a seat-share agreement broke down. The BJP has been in power in Haryana since 2014.
“This time, for the first time, Arvind Kejriwal has come to Haryana with AAP. So, a new and great option for change is in front of the people of Haryana. They have seen the work done by AAP in Punjab, and have seen the government of Delhi. After seeing everything, the people will go for a change and vote for Arvind Kejriwal’s new and honest politics and AAP,” Pathak said.
