Delhi: AAP kicks off poll drive under 'Jail ka Jawab Vote se' campaign in Shahdara
Under the campaign, AAP leaders will visit every house in the four Lok Sabha constituencies where the party has fielded its candidates
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Tuesday (April 9) began a door-to-door drive in Delhi's Shahdara as part of its 'Jail ka Jawab Vote se' campaign to seek support for Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who is currently lodged in Tihar jail, and the party in the Lok Sabha elections.
Under the campaign, AAP leaders will visit every house in the four Lok Sabha constituencies where the party has fielded its candidates.
Gopal Rai, the AAP's Delhi convenor, kicked off the campaign in Shahdara. He was accompanied by the party's East Delhi candidate Kuldeep Kumar.
Kejriwal was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on March 21 in connection with a money-laundering case linked to the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy. He is currently lodged in Tihar jail.
Contesting the Lok Sabha polls in an alliance with the Congress, the AAP has fielded candidates on four seats -- New Delhi, East Delhi, South Delhi and West Delhi. The Congress is contesting the remaining three seats in the national capital.
Polling for the seven Lok Sabha seats in Delhi will be held on May 25.
