AAP Govt Policies Help Delhi Families Save Rs 25,000 Per Month, Says Kejriwal

The AAP government's welfare schemes in Delhi have led to households saving Rs 25,000 monthly. If re-elected, new initiatives will add Rs 10,000 to these savings, said Arvind Kejriwal.

New Delhi, Jan 31 (PTI) Every household in Delhi saves an average of Rs 25,000 a month due to the AAP government's welfare schemes and if the party returns to power, its new initiatives will add another Rs 10,000 to people's savings, party supremo Arvind Kejriwal said on Friday.

The former chief minister was speaking at the launch of the AAP's 'Bachat Patra' campaign here, aimed at highlighting the financial benefits of the schemes brought by his party's government.

"Our volunteers will reach out to people and get them to fill the 'Bachat Patra' in which they will note how much they are saving through our free welfare initiatives," Kejriwal said.

Under the AAP government's policies, an average Delhi family saves Rs 25,000 per month and if people bring the party back to power by pressing the button against the 'jhadhu' (broom -- AAP's election symbol), then its new schemes will add another Rs 10,000 to this.

He said schemes like free bus travel for students, Mahila Samman Yojana and Sanjeevani Yojana, all proposed in the AAP's manifesto, are among such initiatives.

With the Union Budget set to be presented on February 1, Kejriwal contrasted the AAP's policies with the BJP's approach.

"Budgets usually bring inflation and impact household finances. But in Delhi, our government ensures savings for every family. On the other hand, the BJP has repeatedly said it will discontinue these benefits if it comes to power," he claimed.

He also accused the BJP of diverting public funds to benefit its corporate allies.

"We use the budget for the welfare of people while the BJP directs it towards its businessman friends. In Mumbai, they handed over Dharavi land to one of their associates. In Delhi, their goal is to grab land and not to serve people," he said.

Delhi goes to polls on February 5 and the results will be announced on February 8. PTI MHS VIT DIV DIV
