Delhi: The National General Secretary Tarun Chugh on Wednesday lashed out at the at Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Chief Arvind Kejriwal over the ‘Pujari Granthi Samman Yojna,’ accusing him of neglecting them for 11 years.

He alleged the AAP leader Kejriwal for failing to implement these schemes for  priests and granthis from the last 11 years.

He used to send money to clerics only for votes. Now when the public is removing him, he is remembering Sanatanis, Gurudwaras and temples.

BJP leader Vijay Goel criticized Kejriwal, accusing him of aiming to win elections through the announcement of freebies.

“The announcements by Arvind Kejriwal are electoral announcements. The elections should be based on dirty tap water, Yamuna pollution, Delhi pollution, corruption. Arvind Kejriwal did not take any steps in the past 10 years and is now making new announcements each day. The one who doesn’t work for 10 years only wants to win elections by announcing freebies,” Goel said.

 Delhi Congress president  Devendra Yadav earliere  hit out at former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal after the announcement of ‘Pujari Granthi Samman Yojna’ and alleged that AAP convener has been “exposed in front of the people.”

“Clerics haven’t yet received their salaries. Senior citizens are looking for their pensions, employees have not received their ration cards, tap water is not clean, Yamuna is still polluted.” Yadav said.

Kejriwal on Tuesday launched the registration for Pujari Granthi Samman Yojana. Under this Scheme priests of temples and the ‘granthis’ of the Gurudwara will receive an honorarium of about Rs 18,000 per month.
