Kejriwal's Varanasi road show: Confident of record victory, says AAP supremo

Varanasi: A day after Narendra Modi drove through this temple town, his opponent AAP's Arvind Kejriwal today began his road show from rural parts of the constituency and took a jibe at the BJP's Prime

"AAP is winning with a huge majority in Varanasi... Narendra Modi will suffer defeat as people of Varanasi know about the reality," said Kejriwal, whose city roadshow would begin later today from Banaras Hindu University gate -- the same place from where Modi last evening began his drive-through.

The campaigning has suddenly heated up here despite scorching heat with temperatures soaring past 45 degrees. Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi will also hold a roadshow tomorrow to seek vote for the party candidate Ajay Rai.

Kejriwal, who was also expected to address a public meeting today, has been campaigning extensively here for about one month, especially in rural and minority-dominated areas.
