Drawing crowds in West Delhi, Sunita Kejriwal, the wife of Arvind Kejriwal, AAP National Convenor and Delhi's Chief Minister, took center stage at a roadshow in support of Mahabal Mishra, the coalition's candidate from Tilak Nagar. The event marked AAP's ongoing campaign amidst a strategic alliance with the Congress, which sees this seat fallen into the latter's lap. As Sunita greeted onlookers from the rooftop window of her car, Mishra sat crossed-legged behind her, visibly moved by the moment.
Addressing the public, Sunita proclaimed, 'Your Chief Minister is as brave as a lion, unbowed by fear.' During the speech, Mishra's eyes welled up with tears, especially noticeable as Sunita introduced him, prompting a wave of emotion throughout the crowd. She praised Mishra's dedication, urging the constituents to cast their votes in his favor.
Local AAP MLA from Tilak Nagar, Jarnail Singh commented on the state of the nation, 'Our country is exhausted from despotism. The whole nation will respond to this tyrannical rule through their votes, seeking blessings for CM Kejriwal while advocating for the coalition candidate. People from every corner of West Delhi gathered, uniting against BJP's policies believed to be regressive. The current financial trajectory suggests the dollar could soon reach a valuation of 100 rupees.'
Jarnail Singh added a note on political shifts following the resignation of the Delhi Congress President, indicating confidence in Mishra winning notably and the coalition securing all seven Delhi seats. Even as senior leaders depart, AAP's resolve remains unshaken.
In a significant development, Arvind Kejriwal is detained in Tihar Jail under a money laundering case linked to a liquor scandal. With Kejriwal's absence, Sunita has assumed the mantle of the campaign trail, having supported candidate Kuldeep Kumar in Northeast Delhi the previous day. AAP has negotiated a 4-3 seat-sharing deal with Congress, with candidates like Somnath Bharti in New Delhi and Sahiram Pehlwan in South Delhi completing AAP's lineup for the capital's contest.
