Arvind Kejriwal and Bhagwant Mann held a roadshow and asked the people of Gujarat to give the Aam Aadmi Party, or AAP, at least one chance in Gujarat
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his Punjab counterpart Bhagwant Mann are on a two-day Gujarat visit with eyes on the state elections scheduled later this year. The two offered prayers at Swaminarayan temple in Ahmedabad today.
They held a roadshow yesterday and asked the people of Gujarat to give the Aam Aadmi Party, or AAP, at least one chance in Gujarat, which the two leaders alleged has been under the "arrogant" BJP's rule for 25 years.
The Gujarat BJP has called Mr Kejriwal and Mr Mann "tourists" and took a swipe at Mr Kejriwal as the "mayor of a large city", alluding to Delhi's status as a Union Territory.
Gujarat AAP chief Gopal Italia told NDTV that the BJP's comments on the Delhi Chief Minister were "demeaning".
