He then visited Unjha-based Umiya Mata temple, revered by the Patel community.
Outside the temple, members of a little-known outfit Rashtriya Patidar Sansthan, staged protests against Kejriwal over his remarks on the surgical strikes.
Patel quota stir leader Hardik Patel had yesterday issued a statement in support of Kejriwal.
“We should not oppose Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal when he is coming to meet the family members of those who died during Patidar community’s reservation agitation. He will tell the rest of the country about our plight,” Patel said in a message from Udaipur.
Later, Hardik through his organisation in Mehasna gave a memorandum to Kejriwal seeking his support to the stir.
