L-G’s actions, excise probe, AAP-da led to AAP’s election setback
In the first week of January, the Bharatiya Janata Party’s campaign for the Delhi Assembly election started with Prime Minister Narendra Modi leading the attack from the front on the ruling Aam Aadmi Party. Major moves Though the AAP had run-ins with the previous L-G’s too, the friction between the AAP and the L-G’s office worsened to unprecedented levels under Mr. Saxena’s tenure, who unlike his two predecessors was not a retired IAS officer and was seen by many as being close to the BJP at the Centre. Within two months of his appointment, Mr. Saxena in July 2022 recommended a CBI probe into the Delhi excise policy, which led to the arrest of top AAP leaders, including party chief Arvind Kejriwal and his trusted deputy Manish Sisodia. ‘Historic win’ Around 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, as BJP’s win was almost certain, Mr. Modi said in his first reaction over a post on X, “We guarantee that we will leave no stone unturned to ensure the all-round development of Delhi and to make the lives of its people better.” “It is a historic win and not a usual victory as the people of Delhi have shown the door to ‘AAP-da’.
