Ahmedabad, July 29 (NationPress) The Gujarat leader of the Aam Aadmi Party, Isudan Gadhvi, has unveiled an extensive public outreach initiative named 'Gujarat Jodo Abhiyan', which is scheduled to commence on August 1.
This campaign will engage citizens at every level, from local booths to statewide activities. Senior party leaders, along with district, taluka, and municipal representatives, will hold more than 2,000 public meetings across Gujarat in the upcoming two months.
In a video address to the public, Gadhvi emphasized, "We will address local concerns, particularly those that impact farmers, cattle-rearers, and rural youth. Issues ranging from inadequate prices for agricultural outputs to the difficulties faced by pastoralists will be highlighted. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) aims to represent the people's voice where others have faltered."
He also extended an invitation to numerous young individuals eager to run for Taluka and District Panchayat elections, asserting, "The BJP and Congress have not provided the youth with opportunities. We are keen to empower them through our platform."
Gadhvi took a pointed jab at the current government, stating, "Anyone disillusioned by corruption, oppressive governance, and political coercion under the present Gujarat administration is encouraged to join our party. We are dedicated to creating a transparent, people-first alternative."
The initiative will encompass key districts such as Ahmedabad, Surat, Rajkot, Vadodara, Kutch, Mehsana, Sabarkantha, Chhota Udepur, and Gir Somnath, with senior leaders spending between 15 to 30 days in each region.
Endorsed by the party’s national convenor Arvind Kejriwal, this effort aims to recruit millions of new members into the Aam Aadmi Party in Gujarat.
AAP positions itself in the state as a clean, people-focused alternative to the BJP and Congress, emphasizing grassroots governance, anti-corruption, and welfare-driven politics.
In the 2022 Gujarat Assembly elections, AAP made its electoral entry by securing five seats and obtaining national party recognition.
Under Gadhvi's leadership in Gujarat, AAP continues to resonate with farmers, youth, and the urban middle class, confronting what it deems a deeply rooted system of corruption and political monopoly.
