During his visit, Arvind Kejriwal will provide a fillip to the AAP's campaigning and also declare a "major pre-poll guarantee" for the people of Gujarat, a statement by the party informed on Thursday, as reported by news agency PTI.
So far, the AAP national convener has announced a set of "guarantees" which include free electricity up to 300 units per month, unemployment allowance of Rs 3,000, ten lakh government jobs, free and quality healthcare for all, free education in state-run schools and Rs 1,000 allowance for women if the AAP comes to power in Gujarat.

On Saturday, he will attend a meeting of sarpanches in Surendranagar town. Following this, he will attend a "town hall" meeting with Village Computer Entrepreneurs (VCEs), who work in eGram centres for delivering services to rural citizens, the AAP stated.
Arvind Kejriwal has visited the state multiple times in the last few months to campaign for his party and oversee its poll preparations. Gujarat, currently ruled by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), is slated to undergo assembly elections by the year-end.
