Days after it sounded the bugle for the Assembly elections in Himachal Pradesh, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has stepped up the tempo of its electioneering in the run-up to the State Assembly elections, which are due in the later half of 2022.
After its emphatic win in the Assembly elections in the neighbouring State of Punjab, the party seems in no mood to let its flourishing momentum slow down going by its efforts to stimulate its cadre and galvanise public support. After holding a roadshow in Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi town on April 6, the AAP’s national convener and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is now set to visit the State on April 23 and address a public rally at Shahpur in Kangra district. This will be Mr. Kejriwal’s second public appearance in the hill State within a fortnight.
To ensure maximum participation of people in the forthcoming rally, party members are going door-to-door to appeal to people to visit the rally’s venue. Kangra is one of the most politically significant districts in the State, with as many as 15 Assembly constituencies. The party has already announced its decision to contest all 68 Assembly constituencies in the State.
