New Delhi [India], January 3 (ANI): Delhi BJP President Virendraa Sachdeva on Friday launched a sharp attack on Aam Aadmi Party Chief Arvind Kejriwal, accusing his government of corruption and hindering the implementation of central welfare schemes like Ayushman Bharat in the national capital.
Speaking to ANI, Sachdeva emphasized the need for a “double-engine government” under Prime Minister Narendra Modi to accelerate Delhi’s development.
“The PM told today how Delhi ‘AAPda’ (disaster) government has looted Delhi. He also mentioned that four crore people in the country have been given ‘pucca’ houses. He also said that it is Modi’s guarantee that every slum dweller will have a permanent house in Delhi,” he said.
“He (PM Modi) said that he could also make a ‘Sheesh Mahal’ if he wanted to. This was a direct remark on corrupt Arvind Kejriwal who has looted Delhi. The people of Delhi have also decided that they will not tolerate ‘Aapda’, and will bring about a change,” the Delhi BJP chief added.
“Aapda ko hatana hai, BJP ko laana hai,” Sachdeva added.
The Delhi BJP Chief further asserted that when a double-engine government is formed in Delhi under the leadership of the Prime Minister, development will gather pace in the national capital.
“To build a better Delhi, we will have to work with the vision of the Prime Minister. Yamuna is the BJP’s priority. We want a BJP government to be formed in Delhi, Yamuna to be clean, corruption-free governance and Delhi to move ahead at the pace of development,” he said.
Speaking on the Ayushman Bharat Scheme, Virendra Sachdeva said that it is not been implemented in Delhi as Arvind Kejriwal lives in “Arrogance”.
“The Ayushman Scheme is implemented across the country, except in Delhi, because Delhi’s Chief Minister lives in arrogance. There are several schemes by the Prime Minister that Kejriwal does not allow to be implemented in Delhi. He even views development projects through the lens of dirty and manipulative politics,” the BJP leader said.
Earlier today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi slammed the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and said “Those who have been in power in Delhi for the last 10 years – have damaged school education”.
PM Modi also attacked AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal and said, “In the last 10 years, Delhi has been surrounded by an ‘Aapda’. By keeping Anna Hazare at the front, a few ‘kattar beimaan’ people have pushed Delhi towards ‘Aapda’. ‘AAP aapda bankar Delhi par toot padi hai’.”
Hitting back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Aapda’ (crisis) at the Aam Aadmi Party-led Delhi government, the party’s national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Friday highlighted his government’s works in the national capital and said that people consider this as a ‘Aashirwad’ (blessing).
“Jo kaam AAP Sarkar kar rahi hai use log aapda nahi Aashirwad kehte hai (The work the AAP government is doing isn’t a crisis; people call it a blessing),” Kejriwal said at a press conference today, adding that there are three “Aapda” (crisis) in the BJP itself.
“Aapda Delhi mein nahi BJP mein aayi hai (The crisis isn’t in Delhi; it’s within the BJP). The first crisis for the BJP is that they don’t have a Chief Ministerial face. The second is that they lack a narrative — they don’t even know what issues to contest the election on. The third crisis is that they don’t have an agenda for this election. These three crises are within the BJP,” he said.
Speaking further, Kejriwal emphasized that over the last 10 years, the AAP government has achieved so much in education, healthcare, electricity, water, and roads that listing of these achievements could take hours.
“In contrast, the BJP government hasn’t done a single thing in ten years that the Prime Minister could proudly highlight in his speeches. If they had accomplished anything, they would be showcasing it instead of criticizing the people of Delhi,” Kejriwal said.
The assembly elections in Delhi are due in February and the dates for the same are expected to be announced in a few days. (ANI)
