Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday said that there was no difference between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal as both “make false promises”.
“Do you remember how Delhi was when Kejriwal came to power?,” Gandhi asked. “He said he’ll remove corruption. But what has actually happened? Pollution and inflation have kept increasing.”
He added: “Just like Modi ji, he keeps making false promises one after the other. There is no difference between them.”
Gandhi’s comments came at a rally in northeastern Delhi ahead of the Assembly elections in the national capital.
The Congress leader said that Kejriwal and Modi were responsible for the rising inflation, alleging that the two were serving “a few billionaires”.
Gandhi also asked Kejriwal to clarify his stance on conducting caste census and the demand for removing the 50% cap on reservations in education and government jobs. “People should ask Kejriwal if he wants reservations for the backward and his stance on carrying out a caste census,” the Congress leader said.
In response, Kejriwal said on social media: “Today Rahul Gandhi came to Delhi. He abused me a lot. But I will not comment on his statements. His fight is to save the Congress. Mine is to save the country.”
The Assembly elections in Delhi will take place in a single phase on February...
