Referring to AAP convener Kejriwal's remark at an event on Tuesday to mark its national party status that the party workers miss Manish Sisodia and Satyendar Jain, the Delhi BJP chief said, "I want to assure Kejriwal that he will soon join Sisodia and Jain."

"There is a long list of AAP leaders who have been in jail over criminal charges and the BJP will expose the party by reaching out to every household in the city in the next three months," Sachdeva said.

He also claimed that two other Delhi ministers -- Gopal Rai and Kailash Gahlot -- were also under the scanner of probe agencies on corruption charges.?

"If there is any industry that has made a progress in Delhi in the last eight years of the Kejriwal government, it is corruption, black marketing, and theft," Sachdeva alleged, urging BJP workers to go door to door to "expose" the AAP.

Leader of Opposition in the Delhi Assembly Ramvir Singh Bidhuri, BJP's state general secretary Harsh Malhotra, and the party's Assam unit co-in charge Pawan Sharma also addressed the protesters.
