New Delhi: The former Chief Minister of Delhi on Tuesday made an explosive charge in the run-up to Delhi Assembly elections, claiming that his political rivals are on a ‘vote-buying spree’ in his New Delhi constituency.
The Aam Aadmi Party National (AAP) convenor in a post on X, wrote these people have already started buying votes in my Vidhan Sabha constituency. They are openly giving Rs 1000 in cash per vote,” he wrote while levelling a direct charge of using money power to influence the impending elections.
The charges from Arvind Kejriwal come on the back of a political face-off between AAP and BJP over alleged voters’ list deletion controversy.
AAP claims that BJP has undertaken an orchestrated state-wide drive to delete the names of voters from the electoral rolls, particularly in its stronghold on false grounds and petitioning before the Election Commission for the same. BJP in its counter-charge says that this is not a ploy but a ‘rightful’ exercise to alert the poll panel on ‘fake voters’.
While the ruling AAP and rival BJP engage in a slugfest over voters’ list deletion row, the fresh charge by Kejriwal is set to send the political temperatures soaring.
