Don't be misled by AAP: BJP MP to Delhi voters

Addressing a "nukkad sabha" at R K Puram ahead of the Assembly polls, he said Prime Minister Modi has in just six months taken India and put it in a place of "vishwa ka guru" and in the coming four-and-a-half years, the country's fate and future will undergo a sea change under his leadership.

"In the context of elections in Delhi, when the government will be formed here and MPs from here will be elected to Rajya Sabha, then Narendra Modi will have majority in Rajya Sabha as well. Once this happens, there will no hurdle in doing work anywhere.

"Arvind Kejriwal will try to mislead saying this is Vidhan Sabha election... Narendra Modi will run the country and he will run Delhi as well," the MP said.

In a bid to woo the Valmiki voters in the area, he said that this community was the bravest amongst Hindus as they had accepted carrying garbage on their heads but did not change their religion and urged them to support the party.

Won't project CM candidate in Delhi: Congress

Party spokesman Abhishek Singhvi told reporters that the Congress always fought polls under collective leadership but it was surprising that BJP which projects chief ministerial candidate was not doing so in Delhi.
  
The chief ministerial candidate of Delhi of BJP is Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said taking a dig at the ruling party at the Centre.
  
Asked about the statement of Dikshit, who led the Congress government in Delhi for 15 long years, that she does not want to contest, he said that may be her personal view, but a decision on who should be in the fray is taken by the high command and not individual leaders.
  
In the Assembly polls last year, Congress had not only lost power but finished third after BJP and newly-found Aam Aadmi Party.
  
Singhvi dismissed as "absolutely rubbish" speculation that the party has constituted a committee for Delhi polls in which two controversial leaders Sajjan Kumar and Jagdish Tytler have been accommodated.
  
"These kind of rumours are absolutely rubbish. There is no committee, no  meeting. It is time media should also exercise restraint and get their information checked from the most authentic of sources in the party", he said.
  
AICC General Secretary Shakeel Ahmed, who is in-charge of party affairs in Delhi, also spoke in similar vein. He said that the party would constitute the relevant committees only after the announcement of the poll schedule.
