The AAP CM urged his party leaders to collect funds from the public by hosting parties that would act as platforms for fundraising for the Aam Aadmi Party. These parties are likely to begin from December end.
The directions for holding these fundraising tea, lunch or dinner parties that are starting from December end were given by the AAP supremo after holding meetings to discuss the preparations for the election on Tuesday, according to Minister for Employment, Development in the Delhi government Gopal Rai.
These parties would have all the top leaders of the Aam Aadmi Party in attendance. Apart from Kejriwal, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, MP Sanjay Singh and state cabinet ministers among other AAP leaders are likely to attend the fundraising parties.
AAP's public relations campaign for the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections in February 2020 began in November and will continue till December 24, under the directions of its MLAs. Under the mega campaign by AAP, public outreach programs will be held at all the polling booths in Assembly constituencies across Delhi. For carrying out such large scale operations, the party has also appointed 2,700 divisional in-charges across Delhi to the booth committees to oversee the smooth functioning of the outreach programs.

So far, the AAP has completed three phases of campaigns in the run-up to the Delhi Assembly elections since September. In the first phase which started on September 1 and lasted till October 3, the party held 'Jan Samvad Yatra' in all the 70 assembly constituencies.
