Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national president, JP Nadda, launched a scathing attack on Delhi’s ruling party, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), and its leader Arvind Kejriwal, ahead of the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections. Speaking at a public event, Nadda accused AAP of causing immense hardship to the people of Delhi and accused Kejriwal of being involved in various scams.
“The ‘AAP-da’ party has put the people of Delhi in a lot of trouble,” Nadda said, addressing a large crowd. He went on to highlight several issues he believes have worsened under the AAP government, including the condition of the city’s roads and cleanliness. “Delhi has changed a lot under this government. There are heaps of garbage everywhere. The roads are broken and the city’s infrastructure is in a pathetic state,” he added.
Nadda also slammed the party’s commitment to tackling corruption, calling it a broken promise. “The person who won the election on the issue of corruption has now broken all records of corruption. Arvind Kejriwal is involved in many scams. AAP is a ‘kattar beimaan’ (hardcore dishonest) party,” he said, referring to the series of corruption allegations that have surrounded Kejriwal and his ministers in the past years.
The BJP President further raised questions about the credibility of the Delhi government, alleging that the Kejriwal administration had failed the people of Delhi by prioritizing their political agenda over public welfare. “The promises made by AAP during their election campaigns were all lies. Now, the people of Delhi are suffering due to their incompetence,” Nadda stated.
As Delhi prepares for its assembly elections in February 2025, the political battle between AAP, BJP, and Congress has intensified, with both sides taking strong jabs at each other over governance issues. While Nadda has been actively campaigning for the BJP in Delhi, the AAP has also ramped up its efforts to retain control over the national capital.
The upcoming elections are expected to be a crucial showdown, with the BJP looking to expand its footprint in Delhi, while Kejriwal’s AAP aims to maintain its dominance in the region.
