Kejriwal files nomination after attacking Modi, Rahul

He said Varanasi should elect an MP with whom they can relate.

"This time people have to end the politics of corporates and establish a government of the people. We are on the path of truth, that is why god is with us," he said.

Thousands of people, including AAP activists with their trademark white caps, walked with Kejriwal shouting slogans and holding AAP flags. It led to massive traffic jams.

The crowds kept swelling as the over-half-a-mile-long roadshow wound its way. Many shopkeepers shut their shops and joined him.

Hundreds also stood on the road dividers or leaned out of the windows or watched Kejriwal from their terraces on both sides of the roads.
