"The rally, 'Badlenge Dilli, Badlenge Bharat' (Change Delhi, Change India), would leave a big impact and be a stepping stone for the upcoming Delhi elections.
"It would highlight all the issues plaguing the city which has been turned into a slum by the Congress government as half of the city's population doesn't have any basic amenities," Delhi BJP President Vijay Goel said at a press conference.
The Delhi BJP leaders put up a united front on the eve of the rally with Leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly V K Malhotra, former Delhi BJP chief Vijender Gupta, former Mayor Arti Mehra, senior BJP leader Vijay Jolly joining Goel at the press meet.
"Even police have been involved in it and some of our activists were arrested for putting up posters," Goel said, adding, "When there is a rally by Congress leaders, why no such actions are taken. We protest such moves".
BJP has deployed over 1,000 volunteers to manage the arrangements at the venue, Japanese Park, for medical aid, drinking water and other facilities.
Goel said Delhi's problems during the last 15 years of Congress "misrule" like unauthorised colonies, shortage of water and power and problems of villages would be depicted on 20 LED screens, that have been put up there.
