Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Saturday full statehood for Delhi will be a part of AAP's manifesto for the upcoming assembly election and the party will keep fighting for it.
The demand was the main poll plank of AAP in the Lok Sabha election last year. However, it failed to impress the people of Delhi and AAP candidates lost on all seven seats in the city.
Addressing the fifth town-hall meeting, anchored by ABP news channel, Kejriwal said it is the only promise his party was not able to fulfil. But, he asserted, "full statehood for Delhi will be part of AAP's election manifesto and the party will keep fighting for it."
On being asked whether he believes that the Congress will provide 600 units of free electricity if elected in Delhi, Kejriwal said, "They must do it in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Punjab or Puducherry first. If they even announce the free provision of electricity in these states before the elections in Delhi, people will regain trust in them."
