AAP to contest all seats in Gujarat assembly polls next year: Arvind Kejriwal

Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal today announced that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) will contest on all seats in the 2022 Gujarat Legislative Assembly Polls.

"People in Gujarat think if electricity can be free in Delhi, why not here? Likewise, for hospitals also the condition has not improved in 70 years here. But things will change now," said Arvind Kejriwal.

Kejriwal is on a one-day visit to Gujarat.


"Now Gujarat will change. Tomorrow I am coming to Gujarat, and will meet all the brothers and sisters of Gujarat," Kejriwal said in a tweet posted in Gujarati on Sunday.

Kejriwal inaugurated the party's Gujarat state office in Ahmedabad.

The AAP had made inroads into Gujarat politics by winning 27 seats in the 120-member Surat Municipal Corporation (SMC), emerging as the main opposition.
