Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Monday launched a "Jail ka Jawab Vote Se" campaign seeking public support for the party and its jailed convenor and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, who is currently in judicial custody in connection with the alleged liquor policy case. Delhi minister Gopal Rai, AAP MPs Sanjay Singh and Sandeep Pathak launched a campaign with the slogan along with a picture of Arvind Kejriwal showing him behind the bars. A similar poster was put out inside party headquarters soon after Kejriwal's arrest.

Under the "Jail ka Jawab Vote Se" campaign, AAP leaders and workers will visit the four Lok Sabha constituencies in Delhi from where it has fielded candidates and urge voters to support their cause.

Addressing a press conference, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sandeep Pathak said, "Today Kejriwal is in jail. He has fulfilled his responsibility honestly. Now this responsibility is on us and on the 2 crore people of Delhi and on every family. The world is watching Kejriwal, who has done so much for every family in Delhi and put everything at stake. Keep your sorrow and pain in your heart and the day elections will be held, the answer to jail will be given through votes".

Hitting out at the BJP, AAP Delhi convener Gopal Rai asked people to respond to 'dictatorship' with their votes.

Rajya Sabha MP and AAP leader Sanjay Singh, who was released on bail in the same case last week, urged people to recall Kejriwal's face when they go to vote.The AAP has fielded candidates on four seats -- New Delhi, East Delhi, South Delhi and West Delhi. The Congress is contesting the remaining three seats.
