AAP vote share in Gujarat rose by 4% since raid at Sisodia’s home: Arvind Kejriwal

“Ever since they’ve raided the residence of Manish Sisodia, our vote percentage in Gujarat has increased by 4%. And the day they will arrest him, our vote share will further increase by 6%. And if he gets arrested twice, we’ll come to power in Gujarat,” Kejriwal said.

According to AAP officials, Kejriwal will address a rally at NDH Ground in Devbhoomi Dwarka around 3 pm Friday. His party is also expected to initiate a door-to-door "guarantee card" initiative in Gujarat from Friday under Kejriwal's leadership.

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal Thursday said AAP’s vote share in Gujarat had risen by 4% ever since Deputy CM Manish Sisodia’s home was raided by the CBI. He was speaking on the last day of the Delhi Assembly’s special session, where AAP won the trust vote that it had introduced.

“Ever since they’ve raided the residence of Manish Sisodia, our vote percentage in Gujarat has increased by 4%. And the day they will arrest him, our vote share will further increase by 6%. And if he gets arrested twice, we’ll come to power in Gujarat,” Kejriwal said.

Fifty-eight MLAs were present in the Assembly Thursday, with three AAP MLAs not attending and Rakhi Birla, the deputy speaker, chairing the proceedings. BJP MLAs had walked out.

“In the history of mankind, AAP is perhaps the only party that has been subjected to the highest number of false cases. There are only two parties left in the national political arena — one kattar imaandar, beacon-holder of honesty and the other kattar beimaan, flagbearer of deceit and dishonesty. The kattar beimaan party is full of uneducated leaders and fake degree holders; Kattar Imaandar party is full of educated leaders and IITians with real degrees… There are 169 cases against 49 of our MLAs. We are a very small party which is still a newborn. Out of 169 cases, 134 cases have already been closed. The courts have shut down those cases and scolded police. Remaining 35 cases will get closed soon. Among these, 16 cases were filed against me and I have already been acquitted in 12 of them. Four are pending. They filed 13 cases against Sisodia and he has been acquitted in 10, three cases are pending. Four cases were filed against Satyendar Jain. He has been acquitted in two cases, and remaining two are pending,” he said.
