Delhi Politics: BJP Slams AAP Over Ayushman Bharat, AAP & Congress Trade Accusations

The political landscape in Delhi has been rife today with parties making allegations and counter-allegations against each other over different issues. The BJP hit out at the Aam Aadmi Party-led Delhi government for not implementing the Ayushman Bharat Scheme in the national capital. Addressing a press conference, Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva said Delhi and West Bengal have not implemented the Ayushman Bharat scheme solely due to political reasons. Mr Sachdeva also questioned the AAP over the issue, saying that on one hand, it is criticising the scheme in Delhi, and on the other, the AAP-led Punjab government has implemented it. He announced that if the BJP is voted into power, it will implement the Ayushman Bharat Scheme in Delhi.

 

Meanwhile, the Aam Aadmi Party has accused the BJP of corruption and luring voters in the city ahead of assembly polls. Talking to the media, AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal alleged that the BJP is trying to influence the voters by distributing several items.

 

On the other hand, Congress has accused Mr Kejriwal of failing to fulfil his duties and taking credit for the work done by the previous Congress government.
