Goa polls: Arvind Kejriwal to launch 'youth manifesto' on November 12

AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal will launch the ‘youth manifesto’ for Goa on November 12 in the run-up to the state Assembly elections due early next year, said a party official on Sunday.

“The manifesto is the result of various initiatives taken up by AAP. It will reflect aspirations of the youth which will come into reality when AAP is voted to power in the state,” AAP Goa spokesman Rupesh Shinkre told PTI.

The Aam Aadmi Party during its election campaign had taken initiatives like ‘Goa Dialogues’, ‘Youth Dialogues’, WhatsApp and other social media campaigns, besides holding direct meetings with youths from various colleges, he said.

Kejriwal will be in Goa on November 12 and would unveil the manifesto at a function scheduled to be held at Porvorim near here, Shinkre said.

The manifesto has been labelled as “by the youth, for the youth”, he added. AAP has already announced 21 of its candidates for the state elections. Besides, Shiv Sena has announced three candidates in different constituencies.

The other major parties have not announced their contenders so far.
