Sunita Kejriwal To Be The Face Of AAP’s Election Campaign; To Begin From Delhi Today

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor Arvind Kejriwal’s wife Sunita Kejriwal will lead the party’s Lok Sabha campaign in the national capital and other states. The party will kick off its campaign with Sunita Kejriwal’s inaugural roadshow on Saturday to support AAP’s East Delhi candidate, Kuldeep Kumar.

Atishi announced that Sunita Kejriwal, a retired IRS officer, will seek support and votes for AAP while her husband is in judicial custody, Atishi announced at a press conference on Friday.

“In protest against the arrest of Arvind Kejriwal, his wife Sunita Kejriwal will campaign to seek blessings for him and to seek votes for AAP candidates. She will seek blessings for him from the people of Delhi, Punjab, Gujarat and Haryana,” she said.

“She will hold a roadshow in East Delhi tomorrow and will seek blessings from the people of East Delhi for Arvind Kejriwal. On April 28, she will hold a roadshow in the West Delhi Lok Sabha constituency,” Atishi added.

Notably, Kejriwal has been detained in Tihar Jail since April 1. He was arrested on March 21 in connection with a case linked to the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy. He is expected to remain in judicial custody until May 7.

Atishi claimed that Kejriwal’s arrest was a ploy to hinder his participation in the Lok Sabha polls. “I want to tell the BJP that their gamble has backfired completely. Whether it is Delhi, Punjab or the rest of the country, the common people are protesting against the arrest of Kejriwal, protesting against the dictatorship of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, protesting against this attack on democracy. “The people are unanimously saying that they will respond to Arvind Kejriwal’s arrest with their votes,” Atishi said.
