Ahead of Delhi Assembly Elections, Aam Admi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal today claimed that the upcoming polls in Delhi would uncover the long-standing alliance between the Congress and BJP, describing it as a "Jugalbandi".

In a post on X, Kejriwal said, "I said just one line about Rahul Gandhi, and the reply is coming from the BJP. Look how much trouble the BJP is facing. Perhaps this Delhi election will expose the 'Jugalbandi' going on behind the scenes between Congress and BJP for years."

This remark came after BJP leader Amit Malviya responded to Kejriwal's comment on Congress MP Rahul Gandhi.

On Monday, Arvind Kejriwal hit out at Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi, saying that the Congress leader's fight is to save his party, whereas the former Delhi Chief Minister's fight is to "save the country."

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday launched a blistering attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, saying that they keep mum on the issue of caste census as they do not want backwards, Dalits, tribals, and minorities to get their due share.

Specifically targeting Kejriwal at his first public meeting for Delhi, Gandhi said that the AAP convenor was following "Modi's strategy of propaganda and false promises" despite rising pollution, corruption and inflation in the national capital. Gandhi also promised a caste survey in Delhi if the Congress formed the government in the national capital.

Rahul Gandhi said, "Kejriwal had said that he would clean Delhi, remove corruption, and turn the national capital into Paris.What actually happened -- one cannot move around due to pollution and inflation is rising."

Known as 'The Wall' for his impeccable skills in front of the goalpost, Sreejesh was instrumental in guiding the team through remarkable successes, including two Asian Games gold medals, and two Champions Trophy silver medals.

"Arvind Kejriwal had talked of removing corruption. Has he removed corruption? Just like Modi ji's propaganda of making false promises, he is following the same strategy.... Pollution, corruption, and inflation are on the rise in Delhi," Gandhi said.

Kejriwal, while claiming that Rahul Gandhi "abused him a lot," added that he does not want to reply to his comments.

"Today Rahul Gandhi came to Delhi. He abused me a lot. But I will not comment on his statements. His fight is to save Congress; my fight is to save the country," said the post by Kejriwal.

Reacting to this, BJP leader Malviya posted on X and said, "Worry about the country later; save your New Delhi seat for now."

Rahul Gandhi, in a public address at Seelampur, Delhi, criticised both the Bharatiya Janata Party and Aam Aadmi Party.

Rahul Gandhi asked what Prime Minister Modi and Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had done to combat inflation and help the poor.

"I wish to ask, is the inflation increasing or decreasing? What did Kejriwal and PM Modi say on inflation? They said they would reduce inflation. Has it been reduced? Poor are becoming poorer and the rich are becoming richer," Gandhi said.

He further said, "There are 100 to 150 billionaires who are controlling the country. They get all the privileges. Have you ever seen PM Modi speaking about Adani and Ambani? Has Kejriwal ever said anything about Adani?"

The Delhi assembly polls will be held in a single phase on February 5 and the counting of votes will take place on February 8.

The last date for filing nominations is January 17. The date for scrutiny of nominations is January 18. The last date for withdrawal of candidature is January 20.swerteplay
