NDTV
Mr Puri took a swipe at the Aam Aadmi Party's "freebies" strategy for polls, and said the more pressing issue is to "rebuild the city".
Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri, who hit the campaign trail in Delhi for the upcoming civic body polls, said his party takes elections seriously, not just because they have to win it, but wants to create a "a politically mature narrative".
Speaking to NDTV, Mr Puri, who was leading the BJP's 'super Sunday' campaigning, said elections provide the party with an opportunity to take their programs, and plan of action before the people.
In a rare move, BJP's national stars, including party president JP Nadda, Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, and union minister Piyush Goel, are campaigning for BJP candidates for the upcoming Municipal Corporation of Delhi elections.
Mr Puri took a swipe at the Aam Aadmi Party's "freebies" strategy for polls, and said the more pressing issue is to "rebuild the city" as the national capital's land area has remained the same while its population has increased manifold.
