Kejriwal was born on 16 August, 1968 in village Siwani of Bhiwani district in his familys ancestral home. His father, Gobind Ram, was also an engineer. Kejriwal completed his primary education from a village school and moved to a school in the campus of Haryana Agriculture University, Hisar for secondary education. His father, meanwhile, worked as a chief engineer in the Jindal Industries there.
