nFormer Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Guggan Singh, who was its Lok Sabha candidate from North West Constituency during 2019 Lok Sabah elections, joined Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday in the presence of Union minister and Delhi State Election in charge Parkash Javadekar.
Singh had quit BJP and joined AAP in 2017m however in recent Lok Sabha election he was defeated by BJP’s Hans Raj Hans by over 5.9 lakh votes in the Lok Sabha elections for the reserved seat.
Singh was also elected as MLA from Bawana in 2013 on a BJP ticket.
Meanwhile taking jibe on AAP’s National convener Arvind Kejriwal, Javadekar said people believed him to be a great revolutionary like Fidel Castro and Che Guevara in 2015 but now he was exposed. Javadekar, who is Delhi BJP ‘s Assembly election incharge, asserted that his party will form the next government in Delhi on its own.
“In 2015, people believed him (Kejriwal) to be a great revolutionary, as Fidel Castro or Che Guevara. But now they are fed up with (his) lies,” Javadekar said
He said Kejriwal’s original face has come in the open and people have realised the reality was nothing like what they believed about him.
“What he says, he does not do. He was sleeping for four-and-a-half years and now he has woken up for six months. Earlier he complained Modiji did not let him work, how is he working now,” Javadekar said.
He said Kejriwal’s empire of lies will be finished and BJP will be in power after the Assembly polls in Delhi.
“The BJP under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and programmes of his government will come to power in Delhi,” the Union minister said.
He added that Delhi will be powered by a triple engine of development after BJP forms the government here as it already rules at the Centre and the three municipal corporations in the city.
