Delhi Assembly elections is knocking at the door. Political parties are gearing up for the elections. On Friday, Congress’ city unit chief Devender Yadav made it clear that in Delhi, party will contest on all 70 seats and there would be no alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
Yadav spoke to reporters after attending the Congress Working Committee (CWC) meeting in the national capital on Friday and said that the party never announces the chief ministerial face beforehand.
“We will contest all 70 seats. Our leader is elected after we win. Same procedure will be adopted in Delhi. There is no alliance,” the Delhi Congress Chief said.
“The Congress will contest all the 70 seats in Delhi alone. Arvind Kejriwal, has ruined the state. He has nothing to offer but false promises. People in Delhi on average are angry with AAP and this time will elect Congress to power. I am sure you would agree that whatever development had taken place in Delhi, was during the Shiela Dixit regime,” said Vaibhav Shukla, Congress national spokesperson. “Today, Delhi has become a garbage dump yard and Kejriwal is always involved in blame game politics,” added Shukla.
Yadav, who led the party’s Delhi Nyay Yatra’s fourth phase on Friday, said that the residents are “very unhappy” with AAP and the Bharatiya Janata Party’s “misgovernance”.
“Senior citizens are not getting old age pensions. Poor is not getting ration card. Roads are damaged. Pollution has gone beyond control. Youth are unemployed. Women are dejected due to inflation. AAP has opened Mohalla Clinics just for show. This is the Kejriwal model,” he added.
Congress is yet to release its first list of candidates.
