Reportedly the aam aadmi party (AAP) is systematically unfolding its plan B in view of the impending arrest of its convener and delhi Chief minister Arvind Kejriwal. From december 1-20, the party will launch a signature campaign, ‘Main Bhi Kejriwal’, across Delhi. This will be followed by five days of public meetings between december 21 and 24 in all 250 wards. The attempt will be to gather people’s opinion on whether kejriwal should resign if arrested, or if he should continue to govern delhi from jail. It also marks the formal launch of the AAP’s 2024 election campaign on the ground in delhi, following Kejriwal’s declaration during the karyakarta sammelan on november 17.
“From december 1-20, the party will launch a signature campaign, ‘Main Bhi Kejriwal’, across 2,600 polling stations. The party has prepared a pamphlet, which will discuss how the alleged scam is fabricated , why Modiji wants to arrest arvind kejriwal , whether he can match Kejriwal’s work, does Modiji stand against corruption. Finally, the question will be Should kejriwal resign, if arrested?” said AAP’s delhi in-charge and AAP minister Gopal Rai.
This is not the first time that kejriwal has fallen back on people’s opinion when the party stands at crossroads, once again. It is plain that the AAP finds itself in an extremely adverse situation. kejriwal has always sought to build political capital out of adversity. And once again, he is using the connect he enjoys with the people of delhi to have their ears.
