Delhi left behind as AAP govt kept fighting with Centre: Amit Shah

BJP leader Amit Shah on Monday said states with a double-engine BJP government have progressed in the last 10 years, but Delhi has been left behind because the Aam Aadmi Party kept making excuses and fighting with the Centre. Speaking at a public meeting in Jangpura, Shah called AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal and his deputy Manish Sisodia "bade miyan and chote miyan" and accused them of "looting" Delhi. "States having a double-engine BJP government have progressed in the last 10 years. Delhi has been left behind, they keep making excuses and fighting with the Centre like a cry baby (babua sa munh banakar)," the Union Home Minister said. Firing a fresh salvo at Sisodia, who is contesting from the Jangpura Assembly seat against BJP's Tarvinder Singh Marwah, Shah said he is the only education minister in the country who went to jail in connection with a liquor scam. He alleged that Kejriwal lied to the people of Delhi and gave them only garbage, toxic water, and corruption. "'Bade miyan a

BJP headed to its worst-defeat ever, plans to use its goons: Kejriwal

AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal on Monday claimed the BJP is going to face its worst defeat ever in these polls in Delhi and will use its "goons" and Delhi Police to influence the elections. In a video message on the final day of campaigning for the February 5 polls, Kejriwal alleged the BJP was already resorting to unfair tactics in the face of a "massive defeat". Despite all these, the AAP is heading towards a historic victory and the BJP its worst defeat since the party came into being, Kejriwal claimed. "The BJP will use its goons and Delhi Police extensively to win the elections. They will try to intimidate voters, especially those in slum areas," he claimed. The former Delhi chief minister further alleged BJP workers would attempt to bribe slum-dwellers by offering Rs 3,000-Rs 5,000 and marking their fingers with black ink to prevent them from voting on election day. "Take their money, but do not let them put ink on your finger," he urged voters. He said that to counter these ..

Amit Shah slams Kejriwal, Sisodia; says AAP gave only toxic water to Delhi

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday said states having a double-engine BJP government have progressed in the last 10 years, but Delhi has been left behind because the AAP keeps making excuses and fighting with the Centre. Addressing a public meeting in Jangpura in south Delhi, Shah dubbed AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal and his deputy Manish Sisodia as "bade miyan and chote myian" who have looted Delhi. Shah said Sisodia, who is fighting elections from the Jangpura Assembly seat, is the only education minister in the country who went to jail in a liquor scam. "States having a double-engine BJP government have progressed in the last 10 years. Delhi has been left behind, they keep fighting with the Centre. They have been making excuses for 10 years while acting like cry babies," Shah said. Kejriwal lied to the people of Delhi and gave only garbage, toxic water and corruption to the national capital, he said. "Bade miyan and chote miyan" looted Delhi after making false promises. They a

AAP-led govt model failed, claims Chandrababu Naidu ahead of Delhi polls

Ahead of the Delhi assembly polls, TDP chief and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Monday said the AAP-led government model has "failed" and people should vote for a party that can lead to inclusive growth. Addressing a press conference here, Naidu said people are worried about staying in Delhi because of the "weather and political pollution". There has been no development in the national capital, he asserted. "Politicians have to always think about today, tomorrow and the future. A government with good public policy can transform society," he said. Taking a jibe at the AAP government, he said Delhi has a "half-engine sarkar", and needs a double engine sarkar to achieve development. Performance and better living standards are becoming relevant and not ideology, Naidu said and added "poor people in Delhi have to think if they want to live permanently in slums." Naidu, whose party TDP is an ally of the ruling NDA at the Centre, also said that his party fully supp

Delhi polls: High-octane campaigning ends today; AI spoofs set stage

The high-voltage campaigning for Delhi Assembly polls will come to an end at 5 pm on Monday, ushering in the mandatory silence period before voting on February 5. On the final day of campaigning, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has scheduled 22 roadshows and rallies across Delhi, intensifying its bid to reclaim power in the capital after more than 25 years. On the other hand, the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) remains confident of securing a third straight term, banking on its governance model of free welfare schemes. The Congress, which ruled the capital for 15 years until 2013, is striving to regain its lost ground after drawing a blank in the last two elections. The fiercely-contested electoral battle has been defined by an unprecedented use of AI-generated spoofs, sharp political jibes, and high-decibel roadshows. The Election Commission's Model Code of Conduct (MCC) mandates that all public meetings, election-related functions, and campaigning must cease 48 hours before the cl

Shatrughan Sinha takes 'prachar mantri' jibe at PM, bats for AAP in Delhi

TMC MP Shatrughan Sinha on Sunday took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, calling him a "prachar mantri" who spent 10 to 12 hours daily on promotion. The actor-turned-politician was taking part in a poll rally in support of AAP candidate Atishi. The Trinamool Congress (TMC) and AAP are partners in the opposition INDIA bloc. "Our honourable promotion minster Promotion minister means prime minister," Sinha said in a jibe at Modi. "He is my friend and my prime minister. It is said that he works 18 hours a day but I find him doing promotional work for 10 to 12 hours. Be it a councillor, MLA or parliamentary election, wherever you see, our honourable prime minster always goes there," Sinha said. The TMC MP cited instances of Modi's previous election promises such as two crore jobs, doubling of farmers' income, Rs 15 lakh in the bank account of each person and alleged these promises were not fulfilled. "Farmers' income, which used to be Rs 32 daily, has fallen to Rs 27. What will
