Aam Aadmi Party national convenor and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will address a Kisan Mahapanchayat in Punjab on March 21 in support of farmers protesting against the Centre's three farm laws.

The AAP, in a statement, said the Kisan Mahapanchayat will be held at Anaj Mandi, Bagha Purana and Moga.

Kejriwal will also address a Kisan Mahapanchayat at Huda Maidan in Jind, Haryana on April 4. The chief minister earlier held a mahapanchayat in Uttar Pradesh's Meerut.

"The Aam Aadmi Party has been with the farmers since the beginning. AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal will lend his voice to this pertinent issue at tomorrow's Kisan Mahapanchayat," the AAP said.

The party has strongly come out in favour of the farmers protesting against the new farm laws and Kejriwal has visited the Singhu border twice and extended his support to the farmers.
