New Delhi: The Chief Minister of Maharashtra Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday accused the AAP of “corruption” and running a marathon of lies in Delhi.
“Delhi has made up its mind. The people of Delhi are going to go with BJP. The women of Delhi are going to bring about the change in Delhi. The sisters of Delhi have decided to keep the fake Kejriwal government at home and bring the BJP government. A BJP government will come to power in Delhi under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” Fadnavis told reporters.
Fadnavis was campaigning for BJP candidate Praveen Nimesh, who is contesting for the GokalPur Assembly seat.
He further accused Kejriwal of betraying social activist Anna Hazare, claiming he sidestepped the latter to sit on the Chief Ministerial seat.
“The people of Delhi have seen Arvind Kejriwal’s rule for ten years. When Arvind Kejriwal came to Delhi, he came holding the hand and finger of Anna Hazare and saying that corruption has to be eradicated. Delhi has to be decorated, he came saying such things. I don’t know when he pushed Anna Hazare also and came and sat on the Delhi seat (CM seat). I am from Maharashtra, and I always meet Anna Hazare, who says that if there has to be the most dishonest person in the country, it would be Kejriwal,” he said.
“If a competition of lying and corruption is held in the Olympics, Arvind Kejriwal and the leaders of the AAP party will take all the gold medals…,” the BJP leader further added.
As the Delhi assembly elections approach, the political battle has intensified with allegations flying between the three major parties: AAP, BJP, and Congress.
