Though the Election Commission is yet to announce the date of the Gujarat elections, it is speculated that the state will go to polls in December this year.

AAP which came to power in Punjab in March with a thumping majority has been trying to make inroads in other states including poll-bound Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh.

Delhi chief minister and AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal said that the party will reveal its CM face for the Gujarat polls on 4 November.
