There have been many instances of Kejriwal being assaulted during his poll campaign in Delhi, while during his last Varanasi visit black ink was thrown at him and other AAP leaders.
Many train commuters, however, were heard complaining to police and railway officials about the inconvenience caused due to huge crowd and police presence at the railway station, which is generally very crowded in any case in the morning hours here.
Kejriwal, who is accompanied by members of his family, is expected to spend almost a month in Varanasi, where nomination filing begins on April 17 and polling take places on May 12.
He is also expected to visit Amethi from where his party colleague Kumar Vishwas is pitted against Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi.
According to AAP leaders, Kejriwal is likely to file his nomination from here on April 23, while he may go to Amethi for campaigning between April 20-22.
