While Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal announced free Wi-Fi services for users in the national Capital, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) termed his announcement a political gimmick.
Terming Kejriwal as ‘announcement Minister’ not a Chief Minister, Delhi BJP president Manoj Tiwari said that latest declaration by Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is an election stunt ahead assembly elections. “His (Kejriwal’s) tenure is about to end, he will make such statement just to keep himself noticed among public,” Tiwari said.
Recently, Kejriwal had made several announcements pertaining to free ride for Women in Delhi transport including metro, reduction in electricity charges for consumers.
Taking jibe on AAP’s National convener, Kejriwal, BJP leader Tiwari claimed that by making announcement of freebies, Kejriwal is misleading the people of Delhi “It is an election stunt because AAP is aware that during assembly election time, the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) will be enforced and he will miss the opportunity to mislead public,” Tiwari added.
Mentioning unsafe travel for women in Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) buses, Tiwari questioned Kejriwal, “Where are the marshals in DTC buses?”
