Last week, the AAP had come up with a dalit manifesto in Punjab, a state that has over 25 per cent of the population from the community.

AAP Convenor Arind Kejriwal had also announced that the deputy chief minister of the state would be a dalit. Apart from dalits, the party has until now released manifestos on farmers, traders and youth.
