While addressing the public gathering in Jalandhar, Kejriwal said that the law should be made against forceful religious conversions. The AAP leader stressed and said that religion is a private matter. Every individual has a right to worship a God. A law should be made against forcefully religious conversions. However, nobody should be harassed to do this. Conversions performed by scaring anyone are completely wrong.

Kejriwal said there's a major cleanliness issue across cities, including Ludhiana, Bathinda, Amritsar, and Jalandhar. He said if AAP comes to power, they will provide the best cleanliness facilities, including proper sewage, drainage, solid management, in the cities to look beautiful.

Also, Kejriwal asked the Punjab people to give AAP five years to win the residents' hearts. He said in Delhi, industrialists were considered BJP's vote bank.
