AAP launches door-to-door campaign to connect with public, BJP accuses party of being out of touch for 10 years.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Monday announced the launch of a door-to-door campaign, ‘Aapke Vidhayak Aapke Dwar’ (Your MLAs on your doorstep), from September 1 as part of which the ruling party MLAs will interact with people and tell them about the BJP’s “conspiracies” against the public, a senior leader said. The Delhi Assembly election is scheduled for early next year.
Hitting back, the BJP said AAP has been out of touch with the public for the past 10 years and has now, out of compulsion, announced the “gimmick”.
The decision to launch the campaign was taken on Monday at a meeting of senior party leaders chaired by former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia.
The party had launched similar drives to connect with people ahead of the last Assembly election in 2020, in which it won 62 out of a total of 70 seats.
Talking to the media, AAP general secretary Sandeep Pathak said no discussion regarding the possibility of forming an alliance was held in the meeting.
“Our MLAs will discuss the political situation and the work done by the Delhi government and expose the way the BJP is conspiring against the people of Delhi,” he said.
Mr. Pathak said the former Deputy CM will continue doing his ‘padayatra’, which was launched earlier this month. “Wherever Manish Sisodiaji is going, people are turning up in large numbers in his support,” he said.
