On 'Mission Lok Sabha', Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal arrived here on Tuesday morning. The Aam Aadmi Party convenor will kickstart a month-long campaign against Bharataiya Janata Party's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi in Varanasi from today.

Kejriwal will spend majority of his time in Varanasi, in Uttar Pradesh, until the constituency goes to polls on May 12, the last day of the 10-phase Lok Sabha election. The AAP leader had yesterday told a news channel that he would now shuttle between Amethi, from where his party member Kumar Vishwas is pitted against Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi, and Varanasi.
