Kejriwal launches ‘Revdi Par Charcha’ campaign ahead of Delhi polls
Hindustan TimesAam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Friday said that an election campaign called “Revdi Par Charcha” will be held from November 25 to December 10 to highlight the free schemes of the Delhi government, and added that the BJP will end these schemes if it comes to power in the city in the upcoming assembly elections. In response, Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva said, “It is the duty of every government to ensure that welfare schemes reach every citizen, but Kejriwal’s language makes it seem like he is distributing charity. Kejriwal has not implemented the central government’s Ayushman Bharat scheme, Vishwakarma scheme, Ujjwala Yojana, or the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana in Delhi due to political rivalry.” He added that there are hardly any DTC buses in Delhi worth travelling in so the free bus rides for women are meaningless. Delhi BJP election manifesto committee chief and south Delhi MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri said the party will reduce electricity rates besides providing free electricity, free water, and free bus rides and will also buy 10,000 buses when it comes to power in Delhi.
