Ahead of the Haryana Assembly elections, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) launched a set of five guarantees for the state during a town hall event in Panchkula.

During the launch, Sunita Kejriwal highlighted Arvind Kejriwal’s roots in Haryana. “Do you know that Delhi CM, my husband Arvind Kejriwal, is ‘Haryana Ke Laal’ (son of Haryana)? I was married to him in 1994. Arvindji’s family lived in Hisar at that time… a very humble family. His father worked in Hisar, where he was brought up and studied. No one could have imagined it even in the dreams that this boy will rule the country’s capital.”
Sunita also shared a personal anecdote, “Arvindji was born on August 16, 1968, which coincided with Janmashtami. This is not a mere coincidence. I feel that God surely wants him to do something.”
Promises vs. Guarantees
AAP’s state unit president, Sushil Gupta, emphasized the reliability of AAP’s commitments. “We don’t make promises like the BJP and Congress; we give guarantees. These will be Arvind Kejriwal’s guarantees, not (Narendra) Modi’s hollow guarantees.”
Commenting on the five guarantees, Gupta added, “Every person wants Haryana to get 24-hour electricity and water like Delhi and Punjab. Every person should get employment, and drug abuse and crime should be curbed. Haryana needs change.”
The campaign for the upcoming Haryana Assembly polls was officially kicked off on June 25 by AAP’s national general secretary and Rajya Sabha MP from Punjab, Sandeep Pathak.
