Hours after the BJP released a ‘chargesheet’ accusing the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of corruption and false promises, AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal hit back, saying that the saffron party lacks a clear agenda for the upcoming assembly elections and does not have a Chief Minister face.
Highlighting AAP’s work in electricity, water, women’s travel, and infrastructure, Kejriwal criticised the BJP for the city’s deteriorating law and order and said the party has to tell people in Delhi what they have done for them.
“BJP has no agenda to contest elections. They should tell the people of Delhi what they have done for Delhi in 5 years,” the former Chief Minister said.
“AAP has done a lot of work for Delhiites in terms of electricity, water, women’s travel, roads and many other things. What work have these people done? The law and order situation in Delhi has collapsed. They have not done any work. Now that they have come for elections, they are issuing chargesheets against me. They do not have a Chief Minister face,” he added.
The BJP accused the ruling party in Delhi, AAP, and its convener Arvind Kejriwal of turning the national capital into a “corruption lab” through a series of “scams”.
“What kind of a party is this which came to power promising to give a corruption-free government but was involved in eight to nine scams related to the liquor policy, Delhi Jal Board, DTC, Waqf Board,” BJP leader Anurag Thakur said, while releasing the chargesheet.
The BJP also accused AAP of failing to improve Delhi’s healthcare, education, and infrastructure despite central funds, alleging misuse of public money on advertisements.
It also alleged that AAP was supporting “anti-national” forces, questioning India’s surgical strikes, and receiving backing from “Khalistani elements” during the Punjab elections.
Meanwhile, Congress also attacked Kejriwal, saying that the AAP chief will not be able to run the government.
“He can’t always become a Chief Minister. For him, I don’t think it is possible to even become an MLA. In New Delhi, the fight will be between Congress and BJP,” Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit said.
“Even if he takes the oath as Chief Minister…he can’t sign files, attend meetings, go to the CM office, as per the Supreme Court’s instructions. So, what will the Chief Minister do?,” he asked.
The elections for the 70-member Delhi Assembly are due to be held in February next year.
