The AAP head also pledged a monthly stipend of Rs 1000 to every woman above 18 if the AAP was brought to power in Punjab. The AAP, which is now the largest Opposition party in Punjab, has stated that if the Sanyukt Samaj Morcha decides to run in the elections, their predicted vote share would be damaged. The political party representing 22 Kisan Unions, led by Balbir Singh Rajewal, recently merged with the newly created Bhartiya Arthik Party (BAP).

Addressing the continuing outrage over Prime Minister Narendra Modi's convoy becoming delayed on a flyover while en way to a function, Kejriwal stated that an AAP-led government would provide the necessary protection to the PM and the general public.
