With a few days left for Delhi Assembly polls, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal held back-to-back roadshows in Outer Delhi’s Narela and Bawana area and urged his supporters to press the button for their party symbol broom on the EVM machine so hard that the party breaks its 2015 record of winning 67 Assembly seats.
Kejriwal took out a roadshow in north Delhi’s Narela, Bawana and Gandhi Nagar areas with hundreds of supporters on Monday. Holding placards in support of various schemes of the Government, including free healthcare, and electricity, party supporters danced to the tune of ‘Lage Raho Kejriwal’ (the party’s anthem).
Addressing party workers, Kejriwal said he tried to be like an elder son of every family in Delhi. “I have tried to take all these responsibilities on my shoulder by being an elder son and an elder brother of every household in Delhi in the last five years. I paid electricity and water bills for your family, arranged quality education for the children, took care of the health of your family and arranged for medicines. I also facilitated pilgrimage for the elders of the family,” he said.
In the next five years, the AAP Government will clean the Yamuna River; provide 24-hour water to every household in Delhi, he said, adding that
He appealed the supporters of BJP, Congress and other parties to vote for AAP in the upcoming assembly elections for the development of Delhi.
The Chief Minister also thanked the people for coming for the roadshow despite the cold weather and light rain. He waved to the public and shook hands with people as his roadshow moved through the narrow lanes.
Kejriwal was accompanied by Sharad Chauhan, party’’s MLA candidate from Narela during his roadshow in Narela. Bawana MLA candidate Jai Bhagwan Upkar accompanied Kejriwal as he held the roadshow in the constituency.
In the Assembly polls, five years ago, the AAP secured a thumping victory as the party bagged 67 seats, leaving just three for the BJP.
