  • | Monday | 13th May, 2024

The BJP in the national Capital made Sunday a super one with election campaigning at its peak connecting to a diverse range of voters as Delhi approaches its polling date, which is slated to be held on May 25, in the sixth phase of voting ahead of Lok Sabha 2024 elections. Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri, Assam Chief Minister Hemanta Biswa, Tejasvi Surya, Jayant Choudhury campaigned for the BJP candidates in the national Capital. Starting the election campaign, the saffron party flagged off a bike rally where several youth from Sikh community participated in support of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The rally, with slogan SikhWithModi, was started from the state BJP office and reached the national headquarters via Connaught Place. Addressing the rally, Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva said the Prime Minister values every section of society, but the way the Kartarpur Corridor was opened for the Sikh community, Bal Divas was announced on the name of Veer Shahbajade on December 26, taxes were removed from langar, and the 350th birth anniversary celebration of Guru Govind Singh was organised, all these historic works were done by the Modi government. BJP leader Manjinder Singh Sirsa said, With the hashtag SikhWithModi, today, the Sikh community is moving forward on the streets with the message that we all stand with Modi. Our dream of a developed India will be fulfilled under the leadership of Modi. BJP MP General VK Singh was also present at the rally. The Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha chief and BJP MP Tejasvi Surya took part in a roadshow for the BJPs Chandni Chowk candidate Praveen Khandelwal where he called Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal the poster boy of corruption, saying he has no moral right to comment on graft or transparency. Do you really think Kejriwal has any credibility left? He has made many u-turns in his political life. Many young people like us participated in the 2013 Anna Hazare movement, thinking it to be a non-political campaign against corruption, the Bangalore South MP said. Starting from there to now, Kejriwal has cheated everyone who believed in the idea he presented. He is in an alliance with people he had openly criticised such as Lalu Yadav, Mamata Banerjee, Sharad Pawar, Uddhav Thackeray, he added. Kejriwal, who reached out to the people with the promise of transparency and clean governance, is now in jail facing severe charges, alleged Surya, who was renominated by the BJP from Bangalore South. The BJP leader also claimed Kerjiwal has no moral right to comment on anything even remotely connected with corruption or transparency. He is the poster boy of corruption in the country, Surya said. Senior BJP leaders including Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva, National General Secretary Dushyant Gautam, Delhi Lok Sabha incharge Om Prakash Dhankhad, BJP leader Manjinder Singh Sirsa, and all candidates distributed voter slips going door-to-door across various wards of Delhi nearly two weeks before the Lok Sabha elections in Delhi. This campaign was launched from Vinod Nagar and reached various different areas of the city covering different voters and constituencies. Reaching the Jatt community in the north west Delhi seat from where former BJP Delhi general secretary Yogesh Chandolia is contesting from, a felicitation ceremony was organised to recognise the contribution of the society. Dhankad addressed the ceremony while stating that the community has a glorious history. The society played a leading role in the countrys freedom movement and in keeping the borders safe from the enemy after independence. The Jaat communitys contribution in sports, farming and sacrifice is first, he said.
