Ahmedabad, July 18 || AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann are scheduled to visit Gujarat on July 23, party leader Isudan Gadhvi announced on Friday.
The two senior leaders will attend the ‘Khedut Pashupalak Mahapanchayat’ in Modasa, where they will voice their support for farmers and cattle rearers, Gadhvi said.
The event is expected to draw significant participation from the agrarian community.
On July 24, Kejriwal and Mann will head to Dediapada to hold a public meeting in solidarity with Chaitar Vasava, where they will protest what the party claims are “false cases” filed against him.
The AAP leadership is expected to address a large gathering and raise their voice for justice on behalf of tribal leaders and farmers.
The protest in Gujarat, triggered by discontent with the annual revision of milk rates based on fat content, took a violent turn on July 17.
According to police reports, agitators — allegedly mobilised through social media messages — gathered near the dairy’s premises around 10 A.M., forced their way past barricades and clashed with security personnel.
