BJP Accuses AAP Of Election Rigging As Sachdeva Criticizes Kejriwal’s Focus

Delhi BJP President Virendraa Sachdeva on Thursday accused the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of attempting to rig the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections by engaging in double voting.

Sachdeva claimed that AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh’s name appeared in the voter lists of both New Delhi and Tilak Nagar constituencies.

He called on the Election Commission and Delhi Police to investigate the matter and take appropriate action.

Addressing a press conference, Sachdeva stated, “When Sanjay Singh entered Rajya Sabha in 2018, he mentioned in his affidavit that his vote is registered in the Hari Nagar assembly. At the same time, the voter list of Sultanpur municipality includes his and his family’s name. For the upcoming elections, his name is in the voter list of New Delhi and also the Tilak Nagar assemblies.”

“The Election Commission and Delhi Police should take cognizance of this. On 4 January 2024, Anita Singh claimed that her vote cut from the Sultanpur assembly. On 8 January 2024, she gave an affidavit in which she stated that her vote is registered in the Sultanpur assembly,” he added.

Virendraa Sachdeva Slams Kejriwal For Avoiding Key Issues In Delhi

The Delhi BJP President also criticized AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal, accusing him of avoiding key issues like dirty water and broken roads.

While speaking to ANI, Sachdeva asserted, “Arvind Kejriwal runs away from major issues. He avoids discussing the issues of dirty water, broken roads, and electricity shortages in Delhi. He will never talk about his scams.”

“The PM will lay the foundation stone of three colleges in Delhi – one each in Dwarka, Najafgarh, and the DU East Delhi campus. The PM will also dedicate projects worth Rs 4500 crores for the people of Delhi,” said the Delhi BJP President.

The Delhi Assembly elections will likely take place in February 2025, though the Election Commission has not yet announced official dates.

In the previous election in 2020, AAP won 62 of the 70 seats, while the BJP secured eight. Congress, which ruled Delhi for 15 years, failed to win any seats in the last two assembly elections.
