LUDHIANA: With the opposition crying foul, no rules seem to apply for Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab chief minister (CM) Bhagwant Mann as Ludhiana's key locations have been plastered with illegal hoardings ahead of their visit on Monday.

The duo conducted a series of public meetings across the city, rallying support for Rajya Sabha MP Sanjeev Arora, AAP's candidate for the West constituency by-election.

Kejriwal and Mann visited Haibowal, Jawahar Nagar Camp, and other areas, interacting with residents and promising development initiatives, including the redevelopment of civil hospital.
