According to the leader who asked to remain unnamed, the rally is set to begin at 10am, and CM Kejriwal would likely speak at the gathering at 12noon.
Gopal Rai, the convener of the AAP's Delhi chapter, met with party leaders on Friday to go over rally preparations. He urged them to attend the rally and noted that the party has held multiple meetings at the grass-roots level, including door-to-door campaigns around the city to inform residents of the ordinance and how it impacts their lives.

Additionaly, The Delhi traffic Police has made particular plans and limits for the day in order to guarantee efficient traffic flow and the security of the attendees.
