AAP is expecting more than one lakh people from Punjab to participate in the INDIA bloc’s rally in Delhi on Sunday, said a senior party leader on Saturday. The opposition INDIA bloc will hold a Maha rally at Delhi’s Ramlila Maidan on March 31 to “safeguard” the country’s interests and democracy, the Aam Aadmi Party had earlier said.

The rally was announced after Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with an excise policy-linked 
money-laundering case. From Punjab, CM Bhagwant Mann, cabinet ministers and MLAs will participate in the rally. AAP Punjab state unit working president Budh Ram said, “We have set a target of 1.25 lakh people from Punjab to participate in the protest.”
