New Delhi: Accusing the AAP of engaging in corruption and sheltering illegal immigrants, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said Saturday there was a big wave against the party in Delhi as it is running a "3G" government of “ghapla, ghuspaithiyon ko panah and ghotala”.
"The first G stands for 'ghotale wali sarkar’ (a government which commits scams), the second G stands for 'ghuspaithiyon ko panaah dene wali sarkar' (a government that shelters intruders) and the third G stands for 'ghaple karne wali sarakar' (a government that indulges in corruption)," he said, underlining among others the issue illegal immigrants in the city.
Addressing a public meeting in Mustafabad assembly constituency, Shah claimed that Aam Aadmi Party leaders are aware of the “wave” against their party in these elections.
"People are going to sweep the AAP out with a 'jhadoo' (broom, which is also the AAP's poll symbol) this time... It's because they know there is a 3G government in Delhi," he told the gathering.
The time has come to free Delhi from this “AAP-da” (disaster), liquor mafia, scams and root out 'kattar beimaans' (outright dishonest), Shah said, appealing to people to vote for the BJP for development of Delhi.
"Don't be lazy even a bit or else those responsible for (Delhi) riots will return after getting elected... You have to decide whether you want those who threw Delhi into riots or those who saved (the city)," the home minister told the gathering.
Delhi Assembly Election 2025 | The first of two state assembly polls this year sees a three-way contest between AAP, Congress, and BJP in the nation's capital. AAP decided to contest the polls alone, causing rumours of a rift in I.N.D.I.A. BJP, meanwhile, is hoping the liquor excise policy scam and pollution in Delhi will give the saffron party an edge over AAP. Kejriwal, on the other hand, has different plans with his demand for reservations for Delhi Jats. Congress will also be looking to make its presence felt and has not held back from attacking its own alliance partner.
