Vishwas, though hasn't been officially declared the AAP candidate from Amethi, his nomination from the constituency, which has been a stronghold of the Gandhis, is certain now for the Lok Sabha elections due in some months.

Security was beefed up at the venue ahead of the rally. A few days ago, the AAP's office in Kaushambi in Ghaziabad in UP was attacked by right-wing forces in the wake of a controversial statement made by its leader Prashant Bhushan on holding referendum on army's deployment in Kashmir.
