Arvind Kejriwal, the chief of the Aam Aadmi Party, asked BJP, Congress, and other opposition party members to vote for AAP in the forthcoming Goa Assembly elections on Thursday. In an impassioned plea to rival party members, Kejriwal urged they should not abandon their parties but vote for his party for a brighter future for their children and people. For the sake of a better future, the Delhi Chief Minister has encouraged the other party workers to forget their party for the time being.

"BJP, Congress, and other party workers do not need to leave their organisations to join AAP. But I have a request: vote for broom (AAP symbol) in this Assembly election for the sake of your children's and Goa's future. Please forget your party this time," Kejriwal said, according to ANI.
