AAP leaders launch UP 2022 campaign with prayers at Ayodhya Ram Temple

AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh offered special prayers at the Ram Janmabhoomi and Hanumangarhi temple in Ayodhya as they launched the party's campaign for the 2022 Assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh.

The two will also lead the Aam Aadmi Party's Tiranga Yatra on Tuesday in Faizabad that will start from the 18th-century mausoleum of Nawab Shujauddaulah and end at Gandhi Park in the city.

Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia and party's in-charge of UP Sanjay Singh offered their prayers amid the chantings of mantras. They also took a dip in the Saryu river and had lunch with sadhus.

Sisodia said he also prayed to Lord Hanuman at the Hanumangarhi temple to bless the AAP so that it can form a government in Uttar Pradesh and the people of the state can get a good education, quality health services, electricity, water and employment "like in Delhi".
