New Delhi [India], January 23 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) National spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla lashed out at Aam Admi Party national convenor Arvind Kejriwal and alleged that the “AAP had promised 12 lakh jobs but an RTI has revealed that only 3200 jobs have been given in 7 years.”
Poonawalla told ANI, “After being in government for 11 years, he (Arvind Kejriwal) feels that employment is a priority. He has accepted that he did nothing in the past 11 years…AAP had promised 12 lakh jobs but an RTI has revealed that only 3200 jobs have been given in 7 years…”
“They did not open schools but bars to destroy the future of the youth and indulged in corruption,” he alleged.
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal said on Thursday that his priority will be to provide employment to the youths, assuring them to eliminate unemployment in Delhi.
“In the next 5 years, my priority will be to provide as much employment as possible. Our team is already working on the planning, and I hope that within 5 years, we will eliminate unemployment in Delhi,” Kejriwal said.
He said that in the last 10 years, his government has made every effort to resolve the problems faced by common people in their lives.
“We have worked extensively in areas such as education, healthcare, electricity, water, roads, etc. However, it saddens me that our children, despite being educated, are sitting at home looking for jobs. Often, these children fall into bad company and get involved in crime, from which it becomes difficult to bring them back,” he stated.
The Delhi Assembly elections will take place in a single phase on February 5, and the counting of votes is set for February 8. A total of 699 candidates are competing for the 70 assembly seats in Delhi.
The Congress, which was in power for 15 consecutive years in Delhi, has suffered setbacks in the last two assembly elections and has failed to win any seats. In contrast, the AAP dominated the 2015 and 2020 assembly elections by winning 67 and 62 seats, respectively, out of a total of 70 seats, while the BJP got only three and eight seats in these elections.
