The Aam Aadmi Party on Friday kickstarted its campaigning for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls from the national capital. AAP supremo and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann launched the ‘Sansad mein bhi Kejriwal, toh Delhi hogi aur khush-haal’ campaign.
Speaking at the event, Delhi CM Kejriwal said that he is alone fighting 7 BJP MPs from Delhi as he asked the people of the city to give him all seven seats this time.
"You made Kejriwal CM for three time that is BJP and Lieutenant Governor hate you," he said, adding, "These 7 MLAs go to LG to stop your work...Delhi's ration and medicines are stopped."
"You gave a big responsibility to a small man in Delhi...I never considered myself as CM," he added.
Punjab CM Mann said, “Today, we are officially starting the campaign for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal might be thinking that a small caravan started in Ramleela ground around 12 years ago and in 10 years, AAP has become a national party."
"...Today AAP has become a national party. Delhiites have shown immense love and faith in AAP by providing thumping victory in the past elections. We believe in work politics, not in hatred politics...," he added.
"Arvind Kejriwal works day and night to provide the best for the people of the National Capital, however, the central government is halting all significant works such as Delhi Jal Board...Arvind Kejriwal is fighting alone but he has you all and that's our 'shakti.' They say double-engine, we say 'double-shakti'," Mann said.
The AAP has agreed to contest the upcoming Lok Sabha polls in alliance with Congress in Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat, Chandigarh, and Goa.
