Over 10 lakh signatures collected during campaign against Sisodia, Jain's arrest: AAP

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) said it has collected more than 10 lakh signatures during its door-to-door campaign against the arrests of its leaders Manish Sisodia and Satyendar Jain.

The Aam Aadmi Party on April 10 said it has collected more than 10 lakh signatures during its door-to-door campaign against the arrests of its leaders Manish Sisodia and Satyendar Jain.

Following this, a letter will be sent to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to protest the arrest of Mr. Sisodia and Mr. Jain, the AAP's Delhi unit convener Gopal Rai said.

The party had last month kick-started the door-to-door campaign in all the wards of Delhi to collect signatures from the residents. 

"Our target was to collect 10 lakh signatures and we achieved it on Sunday. Our district incharges, Lok Sabha incharges and councillors were involved in the campaign," Mr. Rai said.

Everyone knows that Mr. Sisodia and Mr. Jain were the people who transformed the education and healthcare system in the national capital, Mr. Rai claimed.

"Mr. Sisodia transformed the government schools while Mr. Jain gave the model of mohalla clinics. People are angry at the fact that these people have been put behind bars," he said during a press conference.

Delhi Health Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj thanked the people of Delhi for supporting the campaign.
