Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will on Saturday visit Gujarat where he will pray at the Somnath temple and later interact with farmers in Rajkot district, the AAP said on Friday.
The Aam Aadmi Party said Kejriwal will touch down at Rajkot Airport at 8.15 a.m. After being welcomed by supporters, he will leave for the famed Somnath temple at 10 a.m.
His cavalcade is expected to take around three hours to reach the Shiva temple in Somnath on the Arabian Sea coast.
The AAP alleged earlier that the Gujarat government cancelled a July 10 visit to Surat by Kejriwal by forcing a university to deny permission for an auditorium where the Chief Minister was to be hosted.
On his way Rajkot on Saturday, Kejriwal would interact with farmers "to hear out their woes till the evening", an AAP spokesperson said.
