Bhagwant Mann to meet AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal today

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)’s chief ministerial face in Punjab, Bhagwant Mann, will visit Delhi on Friday to meet party national convener Arvind Kejriwal.

This comes after the party won the Punjab elections decimating the Congress and the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD)-Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) combine.

Talking to reporters in Sangrur before leaving for the national capital, Mr Mann said he was going to meet Mr Kejriwal and will congratulate him on the party’s stupendous victory in the Punjab elections.

To a question on government formation, Mr Mann said, “I will meet the (Punjab) governor tomorrow. We will seek time from him today.”

Mann said the oath-taking ceremony will be held at Khatkar Kalan, the ancestral village of legendary freedom fighter Bhagat Singh in Nawanshahr district.
