Ludhiana, April 17
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Chandigarh candidate Gul Panag today held a roadshow in favour of the party's Ludhiana candidate, HS Phoolka. Addressing the crowds, she asked people to vote for Phoolka who was honest and well-educated.
She said it for the first time that educated and honest people were contesting elections and they must not be let down. On AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal's decision to step down as Delhi CM, she said he had done so on moral grounds. “The resignation was symbolic - to tell the people that AAP would not bow to corrupt parties that had colluded to bring down the government,” she said. She said she and her husband had known singer Rabbi Shergill for several years and had convinced her to contest the elections.
Jalandhar: The AAP roadshow in the city, under the leadership of Rakhi Bidlan, received a lukewarm response. Bidlan (26) sought votes for party’s Jalandhar candidate Jyoti Mann (27). A thin crowd of 50 to 70 activists accompanied Bidlan’s cavalcade. Even outside educational institutions, there was little excitement among students. Bidlan and Mann both belong to the Balmiki community. The roadshow began from Lyallpur Khalsa College and ended at Company Bagh Chowk in the afternoon. Bidlan dismissed reports that Mann was a weak candidate.
