BJP’s Delhi Assembly Election Strategy Criticized by UBT Sena MP Sanjay Raut
In a recent development, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut criticized the BJP’s strategy for the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections. Raut, a staunch supporter of AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal, voiced his concerns about the BJP’s tactics of launching projects right before elections, only to remain inactive for the next five years.
Sanjay Raut’s Criticism
Raut expressed his disapproval of the BJP’s approach, stating, “It is their (BJP’s) habit. They launch such projects worth thousands of crores before the elections. They do not do anything for 5 years and before the announcement of the election date, they want to do everything. They go silent again for the next 5 years.” He emphasized that the people of Delhi are firmly in support of Kejriwal and his administration.
PM Modi’s Response
In response to Raut’s criticism, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated a 13 km stretch of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut Namo Bharat Corridor and addressed a rally in Delhi’s Rohini. Modi took the opportunity to criticize the AAP government, accusing them of lacking a vision for Delhi’s development. He highlighted the BJP-led Centre’s efforts in modernizing the capital and expressed confidence in winning the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections.
Accusations and Allegations
Modi further accused the AAP government of spreading falsehoods about the Central government obstructing their work and withholding funds. He referenced the ‘Sheeshmahal’ controversy, citing a CAG report that exposed excessive spending on the Delhi CM’s residence. Modi criticized the AAP for prioritizing the construction of their “Sheesh Mahal” over addressing the needs of Delhi residents during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In conclusion, the contrasting viewpoints of Sanjay Raut and PM Modi shed light on the political landscape leading up to the Delhi Assembly elections. While Raut criticizes the BJP’s pre-election strategies, Modi defends his party’s initiatives and accuses the AAP of neglecting the welfare of Delhi’s residents. As the election date draws near, the battle for Delhi’s leadership intensifies, with each party vying for the support of the capital’s electorate.
