Aam Aadmi Party national convener Arvind Kejriwal on August 7 promised implementation of the Constitution’s Fifth Schedule and the Panchayat (Extension to Scheduled Areas) Act in tribal regions of Gujarat if the AAP is voted to power in the State.
Mr. Kejriwal also promised that Gujarat’s tribal advisory committee would be headed by a person from the community instead of the Chief Minister, as has been the case in the State.
He claimed the Gujarat Assembly elections, due later this year, will be a direct contest between the ruling BJP and the AAP.
