DC Edit | Low standards of Delhi poll campaign avoidable

Deccan Chronicle  

Mr Modi, the most accomplished political communicator of our times, has a penchant for twisting words and coming out with sharp coinages, and in Delhi, he has discovered ‘aapdaa’ which in Hindi means disaster, to refer to his party’s main political rival. The AAP has been elected to rule Delhi for three consecutive terms, as Mr Modi has been elected Prime Minister the third time. If Mr Modi is a master in turning challenges into opportunities, Mr Arvind Kejriwal, AAP’s national convener, is a past master in the game. On the opulence allegedly indulged in by Mr Kejriwal, the AAP has already started reeling out the numbers related to the Prime Minister’s official residence and the expenses incurred.
