Addressing a public rally in Rohini, Modi reiterated his charge that the AAP government has been an AAP-da (disaster) for Delhi and people will get respite from it only by voting for BJP. Dates for the Delhi assembly elections are likely to be announced this week.
“Facing defeat, these AAP-da people are perplexed. They are scaring Delhities that if BJP comes to power, this or that scheme will be discontinued. But I have come to assure Delhities that under BJP rule, no scheme will be stopped but those involved in corruption in these schemes will be weeded out,” Modi said, urging the people to vote in a “double-engine” BJP government both at the Centre and in Delhi. The PM alleged that the welfare schemes under the AAP government have “only run on paper” and the dispensation has looted people’s money.
“These corrupt people will be removed and replaced by honest ones to take forward the welfare schemes. In fact, the people of Delhi will also get the benefit of welfare schemes of the Centre like Ayushman Bharat,” Modi said. He appealed to the people to vote for BJP if they wish Delhi to become a modern 21st century capital.
“The Delhi government alleges the Centre is not letting it function. The best example of how big liars they are is their Sheeshmahal (CM’s renovated residence). They are not concerned about Delhi’s welfare. During Covid, their entire focus was only on the Sheeshmahal,” Modi said.
“It is important for Delhites to know how the ‘AAP-da’ government prevents them from getting their due. The ‘AAP-da’ government is not implementing the PM Awas Yojana properly. It is creating hurdles in providing pucca homes to the people of Delhi. About 30,000 homes constructed under the old schemes are lying vacant. ‘AAP-da’ has not allocated these homes to people of Delhi,” he alleged.
