AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal Sunday lambasted the BJP and the Congress, and warned people they will face unprecedented inflation if either of the parties are voted to power in the general election.

Kejriwal was addressing a public meeting in Vasundhara area of Ghaziabad in support of Aam Aadmi Party candidate Shazia Ilmi.

During his tenure as Delhi chief minister, Kejriwal said he saw certain documents that indicated that both the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Congress support the rise in gas prices that will finally lead to an overall unprecedented rise in prices.

Claiming that both the parties were neck deep in corruption, he asked the crowd of around 10,000 people to vote for his party to create a corruption-free India.

Earlier, party leader Manish Sisodia said the hype created about the development of Gujarat by the media was a myth.

He said that he along with several AAP teams visited 26 districts and found corruption in every department.

Sisodia said it was very simple to weed out corruption but it needs will which both the Congress and the BJP lack.
