Alleging that some Goa MLAs and local representatives were threatening the AAP workers for inviting people to Delhi Chief Minister and party convener Arvind Kejriwal's rally that is scheduled to be held here on Sunday, the party today said it would even invite these politicians to the event.
Kejriwal will be addressing a public meeting at Campal Ground here.
"Some MLAs and councillors representing local civic body are threatening our volunteers, who are reaching out to each and every corner of Goa for campaign and inviting people for Arvind Kejriwal's public rally," AAP national secretary Pankaj Gupta told reporters here.
"This is a democratic state and we won't behave like them (MLAs and local representatives). We will even invite MLAs and councillors, who are threatening our volunteers. We will go to their homes with roses and invite them as well for the rally," Gupta said.
The party today announced its coordinators across all the 40 Goa assembly constituencies.
Party's national secretary Ashutosh said AAP is confident of forming the government in Goa after 2017 polls.
