Kejriwal Accuses BJP Of Conspiring Against AAP Ahead Of Delhi Elections

On Wednesday, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of plotting a ‘dirty conspiracy’ against his party and its leaders in the lead-up to the Delhi Assembly elections.

The accusations stem from public notices released by the Department of Women and Child Development and the Department of Health and Family Welfare, which have denied the existence of the ‘Sanjeevani Scheme’ and ‘Mukhyamantri Mahila Samman Yojana’.

Speaking at a press conference with Delhi Chief Minister Atishi, former Deputy CM Manish Sisodia, and AAP MP Sanjay Singh, Kejriwal alleged that the BJP was fabricating a false case against Atishi as part of its election strategy.

Kejriwal stated, “BJP is facing a historic defeat in the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections. They have no narrative, no agenda, and no accomplishments from the past ten years. Despite having MPs, the L-G, and significant resources, they have failed to deliver on security, education, infrastructure, or healthcare.”

AAP’s Positive Campaign vs BJP’s Derogatory Statements

Kejriwal claimed that the BJP was relying on negative campaigning due to the lack of a strong chief ministerial candidate.

“While AAP is seeking votes based on its achievements such as schools, hospitals, Mohalla Clinics, free bus travel for women, and free electricity, BJP is resorting to derogatory statements and baseless accusations,” he asserted.

Kejriwal further defended the party’s welfare schemes, including the Mahila Samman Yojana and Sanjeevani Yojana, stating that the Delhi Cabinet had approved them.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor remarked, “The Cabinet has approved Rs 1,000 monthly for women, and we’ve promised to increase it to Rs 2,100 after winning the elections. We have also pledged free medical treatment for senior citizens in both government and private hospitals.”

BJP’s Alleged Targeting Of AAP Leaders

Kejriwal further alleged that the BJP, unsettled by AAP’s initiatives, was using central agencies like the ED, CBI, and Income Tax Department to target AAP leaders.

“We came to know from our sources that a meeting of all three agencies, ED, CBI and Income Tax Department, was held, and in that meeting, orders have come from the top that by making any fake case, Delhi CM Atishi should be arrested,” Kejriwal stated noting that he is taking full responsibility for this big allegation.

He further added, “Before the arrest, raids on senior AAP leaders, including myself, Manish Sisodia, Sanjay Singh, Saurabh Bhardwaj, Satyendra Jain, and Atishi, are imminent.”

Kejriwal alleged that the BJP was trying to disrupt AAP’s election campaign by burdening its leaders with legal and administrative hurdles, including efforts to stop the free bus travel scheme for women.

He claimed that authorities are preparing a fake case in the Transport Department to halt the free bus travel scheme for women, calling it a dirty conspiracy years in the making.

Atishi’s Criticism Of BJP’s Tactics

Delhi CM Atishi also criticized the BJP, dismissing the public notices regarding AAP schemes as ‘fake’. She accused certain officials of pressuring others to publish misleading information in newspapers under the BJP’s influence.

CM Atishi stated, “These notices claim the schemes are non-existent despite Cabinet approval and notifications. Administrative and police action will be taken against the officials responsible.”

Delhi CM further alleged that the BJP’s intention is to undermine AAP’s public welfare initiatives.

“From free bus travel to schools, electricity, and Mohalla Clinics, BJP is targeting our initiatives through fabricated cases,” she added.

CM Atishi expressed confidence in the justice system, stating that even if opponents filed false cases against her, the truth would ultimately prevail.

“The BJP wants to stop Delhi’s development by filing false cases. But the people of Delhi are watching, and they will give them a befitting response,” Delhi CM concluded.
