AAP expects the gathering may reach up to one lakh, which is the full capacity of Ramlila Maidan
New Delhi:
Senior INDIA bloc leaders will attend a rally to be held by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) at the Ramlila Maidan in Delhi today. The “loktantra bachao” (save democracy) rally is being held days after Delhi Chief Minister and AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money-laundering case.
The administration has allowed 20,000 people to come for the rally, but Delhi Police expects it to exceed 30,000. The AAP said the gathering may reach up to one lakh, which is the full capacity of Ramlila Maidan.
