Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Bhagwant Mann visited the Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad on Saturday, 2 April. The two leaders paid tribute to Mahatma Gandhi and also spun the charkha at the ashram.

Kejriwal and Mann are on a two-day visit to Ahmedabad as part of the party's outreach ahead of the Gujarat Assembly elections slated for later this year. They are also expected to conduct a roadshow, which the party is calling the 'Tiranga Yatra'.

"I feel gratitude to be born in the same country as Gandhiji. This is my first visit since I became Delhi Chief Minister. But I used to come here as an activist as well [sic]," Kejriwal said.

He also refused to answer political questions from the media, saying, "Ye pavitra sthaan hai. Rajneeti ki batein bahar." (This is a pure place. All political talks will be done outside.)
