New Delhi, Jan 7 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Election Commission is likely to announce the Delhi Assembly election schedule on Tuesday, a development eagerly awaited by both political leaders and voters. Reacting to the anticipation, BJP National General Secretary and Karol Bagh candidate Dushyant Kumar Gautam expressed confidence and criticised the ruling party saying people are eager to end the 'corrupt' rule.
Speaking to IANS, the BJP leader stated, "We were waiting for this moment, and so were the people of Delhi. They are eagerly awaiting the elections to rid themselves of the corrupt party. This party, which should have invested in schools and development, instead misused public funds for personal luxuries, including building a 'Sheesh Mahal'. They have plundered Delhi, and the citizens are ready for a change."
Gautam emphasised that the upcoming elections represent a pivotal moment for Delhi's democracy. He added, "In our system, democracy is paramount. This is the moment we have been waiting for. Our workers are enthusiastic, the public is excited, and together we will ensure freedom from this scandal-ridden government."
When asked about Arvind Kejriwal's comments regarding the Centre orchestrating arrests of political opponents, Gautam dismissed such concerns, asserting that constitutional bodies operate independently and within their boundaries.
He said, "Those who fear defeat tend to make baseless allegations. Their anxiety is evident in their words. Such comments reflect desperation and an attempt to divert attention from their failures."
Gautam expressed optimism about the BJP’s chances in the elections, reiterating the party’s commitment to development and good governance.
He claimed that the public’s frustration with corruption and inefficiency has reached its peak, making them eager for a new beginning under the BJP's leadership.
The ECI is set to announce the election schedule for the 70-member Delhi Assembly later in the day.
The ECI in a media invite said, "Press Conference by Election Commission of India to announce the schedule for General Election to Legislative Assembly of NCT of Delhi at 2 pm."
The press conference will be held in the Plenary Hall of the Vigyan Bhawan in the national Capital.
The term of the current Delhi Assembly ends on February 23, and the whole election process has to end before that.
