Sunita Kejriwal to launch 'Kejriwal's guarantees' for Haryana on July 20: AAP
Haryana Assembly polls are scheduled to be held later this year and AAP has recently revealed that it will contest in all the 90 assembly seats
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's wife Sunita Kejriwal is all set to launch "Kejriwal's guarantees" for Haryana on Saturday (July 20).
The Haryana assembly polls are scheduled to be held later this year and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has recently revealed that it will contest in all 90 Assembly seats in Haryana.
AAP's state unit president Sushil Gupta on Friday told the media in Chandigarh that Sunita Kejriwal will launch "Kejriwal's guarantees" during a townhall in Panchkula on Saturday.
Haryana people want 'badlav'
"We don't make promises like the BJP and Congress, we give guarantees. These will be Arvind Kejriwal's guarantees, not (Narendra) Modi's hollow guarantees," he added.
When asked if these guarantees will include that Haryana should get SYL waters, Gupta quipped, "Haryana should get water. Every state should get water. Distribution of water is the job of the Central government, the prime minister."
People of Haryana want "badlav" (change) and are looking at the AAP with great hope, he added.
For the upcoming assembly polls, Gupta said the party will hold 45 meetings Vidhan Sabha segment wise.
Launching an attack on the ruling BJP, he termed it as anti-farmers. He alleged the government used all tactics, including 'lathis', tear gas etc., to crush their agitation.
Gupta also alleged that law and order situation in the state has deteriorated.
"Jungle raj prevails in Haryana. Murder, extortions have become common. The government is unable to rein-in criminals, but they use all their might to stop farmers from proceeding to Delhi in support of their demands," he said.
Yuvraj Dutt joins AAP
Meanwhile, Gupta said that Yuvraj Dutt, the cousin brother of Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt and late Sunil Dutt's nephew, joined the AAP.
He said that Yuvraj was impressed by the AAP's model of giving good governance, which include good education, health, jobs for all.
"He lived in Mumbai earlier and also worked in many multinational companies, but has now shifted to his ancestral village Mandoli in Haryana's Yamunanagar district. He wants to serve his people. He has also started an organic fish farm," Gupta said.
Yuvraj told reporters that he was impressed by the AAP's drive against corruption.
"It impressed me a lot and attracted me towards the party," he said.
Responding to a question, he said that he was not averse to contesting the upcoming Haryana elections.
