Chandigarh [India], February 10 : Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's wife and daughter will lend their weight to the election campaign of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Punjab. They will be visiting the state on Friday to support AAP on the campaign trails.
AAP has been campaigning extensively in Punjab, promising the people with the developmental agenda if the party is voted to power in the state.
As per information received by AAP, the party chief's wife Sunita Kejriwal and daughter Harshita Kejriwal will seek votes for chief ministerial candidate Bhagwant Mann in the Dhuri Assembly seat.
Mann is in the electoral fray from Dhuri Assembly constituency in the Sangrur district.
