BJP accuses AAP for fake calls to voters to spread fear, confusion

Monday, 27 January 2025 | Staff Reporter | New Delhi

The BJP on Sunday accused AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal of orchestrating hoax calls to mislead voters across constituencies, including the New Delhi constituency, claiming that there were "cancelled" by the BJP and alleged charges of 'voter intimidation, threats, and vote-buying' by the ruling party and its convenor.

Addressing a press conference, BJP New Delhi candidate Parvesh Verma, who has been pitted against Kejriwal, played an audio recording of one such call, in which a person was heard saying, "Your vote has been cut by the BJP. AAP will ensure you get your vote back," and urged the receiver to support the AAP.

 "Arvind Kejriwal is set to lose in New Delhi and across Delhi, where almost all of his candidates face defeat. On February 8, BJP will form the government in Delhi."

He accused AAP of creating confusion and fear among voters out of desperation. "They are misleading citizens with fake phone calls, claiming that existing schemes will be scrapped, despite Prime Minister Modi's clear assurance that all welfare schemes will continue and benefit the poor."

He added, "New Delhi voters are receiving calls from Kejriwal's office saying their votes have been removed by the BJP and later another call claims that Kejriwal has reinstated their votes. I ask Kejriwal - where did you get this voter data?"

Singh alleged that Kejriwal has done nothing for Delhi in 11 years and is using fear tactics because he is losing the election. He also accused AAP of buying votes in the New Delhi Assembly for Rs 500 and showed a video of an AAP worker distributing Rs 500 notes inside calendars to slum residents.

Singh claimed that multiple vehicles from Punjab have been spotted in Delhi, with people allegedly brought in from Punjab to assist Kejriwal. He said, "Kejriwal received Rs 30 crore in MLA funds in five years but spent only Rs 6 crore, letting Rs 24 crore lapse. Had he utilized these funds properly, he wouldn't need to resort to distributing money now."
