Addressing party workers in Rajkot, Arvind Kejriwal supposed with conviction that the next mayor of Rajkot will be from AAP. He recalled that in the last municipal poll 18 percent of Rajkot’s voters supported AAP — and now that trust has only grown stronger. According to him, the time has come for the worldwide people to take charge. His message was simple: this time Rajkot will segregate “service over caste, honesty over corruption.”
BJP’s 30-Year Rule Under Fire
Kejriwal criticised the BJP for ruling Gujarat for three decades while lightweight to unhook real development. “In 30 years Singapore became a ripened country — while in Gujarat under BJP, plane roads became broken, schools and hospitals failed to run,” he said. According to him, Gujarat has been ruined under the party that claims to be the straw of progress. He emphasised that such a long rule should end — and the upcoming societal polls provide that chance.
Farmers’ Arrests And State Repression Allegations
Kejriwal moreover condemned recent arrests of 88 farmer-protesters in rural Gujarat. He said many were jailed without proper rationalization while peacefully taxing their rights. Of them, 42 have obtained bail; 46 remain in prison. He personal detainees were denied supplies and water for over 24 hours, and treated harshly — acts reminiscent of colonial-era injustice. For him, this shows that the BJP’s Gujarat is unwilling to tolerate dissent.
Call To Mobilise Every House, Remove Fear
Urging AAP cadres to go door to door, Kejriwal asked them to remove fear from worldwide people’s hearts. He said many Rajkot residents remain intimidated by the BJP’s legacy, and only personal conversations can reassure them. “We must reach every home,” he said. “We must requite people hope, valiance and faith.” He expressed weighing that once people see clearly, they will vote for change.
AAP’s Challenge: From Vote Share To Victory
Though AAP secured 18 percent votes in the last Rajkot poll, Kejriwal undisputed that it was just the beginning. He stressed that the party must now build on that wiring and aim for full control. “We want not just some seats, but the mayor’s office,” he declared. According to him, the upcoming races is not merely versus BJP — it is between real service and decades of neglect.
Gujarat’s Politics At Crossroads, Public Opinion Rising
Kejriwal argued Gujarat is at a turning point. People no longer trust empty promises or decades-old power. The demand is for real minutiae — wipe roads, functioning schools, hospitals, power and no oppression. He said that the culture of arrests, fake cases and fear-mongering must end now. For many Gujaratis, this may be the first real volitional in thirty years.
What Happens Next: Mayoral Election And Voter Mood
With municipal elections approaching, AAP will launch a door-to-door campaign. Workers are stuff told to reassure families and highlight BJP’s failures. The next few weeks will test whether AAP’s promises — and people’s anger-can translate into votes. If they succeed in Rajkot, it may set the tone for a broader shift wideness Gujarat.
