With an eye on the crucial Uttar Pradesh elections next year, the Aam Aadmi Party formally kicked off its poll campaign in Ayodhya today with AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh offering special prayers at the Ram Janmabhoomi and Hanumangarhi temple in the city.
It also embarked on the Tiranga Yatra (flag rally) in Faizabad, which started from the 18th-century mausoleum of Nawab Shujauddaulah and ended at Gandhi Park in the city.
The rally saw massive crowds that turned up with the tricolour, even as the party led by Arvind Kejriwal stressed on themes like “nationalism” and “Ram Rajya”, both poll planks of the BJP in UP.
