The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is holding a rally at Delhi's Jantar Mantar to corner Narendra Modi-led NDA government on several issues.
Several Opposition leaders, including West Bengal Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Andhra Pradesh CM Chandrababu Naidu, National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah, Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar and former prime minister Deve Gowda, are expected to attend the rally.
Ahead of the rally, Kejriwal tweeted:
Countless freedom fighters laid down their lives for our freedom and democracy. We cannot forget their sacrifices and remain silent to the tyranny of any dictator.

In the run-up to Lok Sabha elections, several Opposition parties are coming together to show their strength against Modi government. The AAP rally comes just days after Naidu's hunger strike, which also gathered the support of Opposition.
