Arvind Kejriwal was accompanied by Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia for the Amritsar roadshow.
Earlier in the day, posters and cutouts of the AAP leader and party national convener Arvind Kejriwal were seen on the roads of the state as a part of arrangements for the roadshow.
Meanwhile, in his first big action after the election result, Bhagwant Mann on Saturday withdrew VIP security of 122 ex-MLAs including Congress state president Navjot Singh Sidhu’s wife and Manpreet Badal.
However, the list does not have names of former Chief Ministers -- Capt Amarinder Singh and Parkash Singh Badal and Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Badal and state Congress chief Sidhu.
On March 16, Punjab Chief Minister-designate Bhagwant Mann’s swearing-in ceremony of the new government will be held at the native village of legendary freedom fighter Bhagat Singh, Khatkar Kalan.
