The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) said on Sunday that the party's national convenor, Arvind Kejriwal, will resume his 'padyatra' (foot march) from Delhi's Rajouri garden on Sunday. The AAP leaders are undertaking foot marches in different assemblies of the national capital in the run-up to the February 2025 assembly polls.

Speaking at a press conference, senior AAP leader Sanjay Singh said Kejriwal will resume his 'padyatra' from Rajouri Garden.

"Padyatras were halted due to festivals. Today Arvind Kejriwal is going to resume his padyatra from Rajouri Garden and the foot marches will continue throughout November and December," the Rajya Sabha MP said.

He said that Padyatra was paused for Diwali and will continue soon from Rajouri Garden. "This will continue for November and December," he added.

Singh also accused the saffron party of trying to stop these foot marches by attacking Kejriwal.

"The BJP has tried to stop Kejriwal from reaching out to people directly by attacking him during his padyatra. I challenge the BJP to compete with the work done by the AAP as it has governments in 22 states," he said.

He also alleged that the saffron party was putting AAP leaders in jail to stop the development work being done by its government for the people in the national capital. There was no immediate response from the BJP to the AAP's allegations.
