Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Sunday launched “Bijli Andolan” in Haryana from Panchkula with Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal targeting the ruling BJP over power cuts in the state and saying that free and uninterrupted electricity supply is possible “if the intent is clean”. At the event, Kejriwal was accompanied by Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.
During the “Bijli Andolan” (electricity campaign), AAP workers and leaders will visit villages and towns and apprise people about “costly power” and regular outages and tell them that free and round-the-clock electricity is possible in Haryana too if the party is voted to power.
“We are launching a Bijli Andolan… As you know, I have my roots in Haryana. Many people from the state have met me and told me about power problems. Some of them said that they have to face power cuts for six hours daily,” Kejriwal said, addressing a gathering in Panchkula.
