Haryana CM takes jibe at kejriwal ahead of MCD polls: ‘…owner of Delhi’

Ahead of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) elections next week, Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Saturday poked fun at his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) opponent and leader, Arvind Kejriwal, in Delhi.

Kejriwal “considers himself as the owner of Delhi,” the BJP leader said in a fresh dig. In his address at a public rally in the national capital, where he was present to support the BJP nominees in the MCD elections – Khattar was quoted as saying by news agency ANI: “Arvind Kejriwal considers himself as the owner of Delhi, unlike our Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who thinks of himself as a servant of this nation.”

On Saturday, Khattar spoke at three rallies that were held back-to-back in the Delhi neighbourhoods of Krishna Nagar, Shahdara, and Rajendra Nagar.

The national capital’s civic elections are slated for December 4, and the results will be tallied on December 7. The AAP has 492 nominees, followed by 507 independents, who make up the biggest percentage of the overall nominations. The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), 31 from the JD-U, 20 from AIMIM, and nine from the CPI have each fielded candidates in addition to the 423 candidates fielded by the BJP, which is now in charge of the civic body (M).

AAP was also criticised earlier on Saturday by Union Minister Anurag Thakur, who charged that the party’s leaders were involved in fraud and corruption.

All AAP ministers are not only involved in serious allegations of corruption but also jailed. This shows that his (AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal’s) politics is only about corruption, liquor, and scams,” Thakur said.
