As ED calls Kejriwal on Jan 18, his Goa schedule from Jan 19 made public

Panaji: Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal will be in Goa for a two-day visit from January 19, a party leader said on Saturday.

The announcement comes on the back of the Enforcement Directorate issuing summons to Kejriwal for the fourth time for questioning in the Delhi excise policy-linked money laundering case.

Kejriwal, who is also the national convener of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), has been asked to depose before the agency at its headquarters here on January 18.

Talking to PTI, the AAP's Goa unit chief Amit Palekar said Kejriwal will interact with party leaders and volunteers during his visit to the state ahead of the Lok Sabha elections.

"Kejriwal will be in the coastal state on January 19 and 20 to review the progress of the party organisation in the state," he said.

Earlier, Kejriwal was supposed to embark on a two-day tour of Goa from January 11 but had to postpone it due to preparations for the Republic Day programme in the national capital, according to a party source.

The AAP has two MLAs in the 40-member Goa assembly. The party had drawn a blank in the 2017 Goa assembly polls, but won two seats in the 2022 elections.
