When You Vote For The Next Time, Do One Thing, Vote For Literate People: Kejriwal In Poll-Bound Rajasthan

Arvind Kejriwal, the leader of the AAP, claimed on Sunday that “illiterate people” are in charge of the federal government and urged voters not to elect candidates with “false degrees” in the future. Speaking at a rally in Rajasthan’s election-bound Sriganganagar district, he stated that as a child, he had heard politicians predict that India would become a developed nation in 20 years.

He said he had also heard Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s speech in which the latter said India would become a developed nation by 2047. “How can we trust your talk? They (Centre) are telling lies. They do not know anything. Today, illiterate people are running the government at the Centre,” Kejriwal said.

He further said, “If there were literate people in the central government, they would not have brought demonetisation and farm laws. When you vote for the next time, do one thing, vote for literate people. Do not vote for those who are illiterate and have fake degrees.” The Delhi chief minister further said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) feel offended because he is “literate, an engineer and was an IRS officer”.

According to him, India will be the most powerful nation in the world in ten years.

Kejriwal also told the tale of an illiterate king who destroyed the entire nation, emphasising the necessity of having an educated ruler in charge of the situation.

He attacked the BJP and the Congress, claiming that both parties had pillaged Rajasthan and the nation.

The Rajasthan elections are scheduled for the end of this year, and Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is attempting to gain ground there.
