In a fiery political exchange, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal lauded the Election Commission’s (EC) prompt action, while the BJP criticized his government over alleged constitutional lapses.
Kejriwal’s praise for EC
After meeting with the Election Commission on Monday, Kejriwal expressed gratitude for its assurances. “The Election Commission has ordered to shift Awadh Ojha’s vote. He will now be able to cast his vote and file his nomination,” he said.
He further claimed the EC had assured AAP that no irregularities, including bribery through distribution of blankets, shoes, and money, would be allowed. “We are very grateful to the Election Commission for their response,” he stated.
Kejriwal’s comments came amidst accusations of malpractice in Kidwai Nagar, where reports emerged of cash and goods being distributed to influence voters.
BJP’s counterattack: ‘Above the Constitution?’
Meanwhile, the BJP launched a scathing attack on Kejriwal over the Delhi government’s failure to table Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) reports in the assembly.
“Does Kejriwal consider himself above the Constitution?” BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi asked, alleging that the Delhi government’s refusal to present CAG reports reflected an “anarchist character.”
The reports, including one on the now-scrapped excise policy, claim a loss of Rs 2,026 crore to the exchequer.
Trivedi also took aim at Delhi Chief Minister Atishi’s crowdfunding campaign, labeling it a “gimmick” and claiming she is merely a mask while Kejriwal acts as a “super CM.”
Broader political jabs
The BJP spokesperson further mocked Kejriwal’s past criticism of Congress during the UPA era, accusing him of now exhibiting the same “super PM” behavior he once denounced.
In unrelated remarks, Trivedi defended the rupee’s depreciation against the dollar, citing “global dollar issues” and highlighting India’s strides in de-dollarization by trading in rupees with countries like Russia.
