Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader LK Advani will conclude his 40-day Jan Chetna Yatra -- to draw public attention to the issues of black money and corruption -- with a public rally in the capital on Sunday.

The rally, to be held at the Ramlila grounds at 11am, will be attended by top BJP leaders including Nitin Gadkari and Ananth Kumar and leaders of opposition in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley, respectively.

Janata Dal-United president Sharad Yadav, Akali Dal leader Parkash Singh Badal and other National Democratic Alliance (NDA) leaders are also expected to address the rally. The NDA leaders are likely to slam the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government on the issues of corruption, black money and inflation, BJP sources said.
