BJP candidate Ramesh Bidhuri on Saturday exuded confidence as early trends show his party surging ahead of AAP in 42 out of 70 assembly constituencies in Delhi. Bidhuri, who’s contesting from the Kalkaji Assembly constituency, attributed this lead to the people’s desire for development, which he claims has been lacking under AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal’s leadership over the past decade.
Bidhuri is not just focused on winning, but also on serving the public. He emphasised that he was not in the game for personal gain or to become the Chief Minister, but rather to genuinely serve the people.
Bidhuri, speaking on the early lead, lashed out at former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, accusing him of misleading the public through false promises and distributing freebies.
“Kejriwal won twice because he distributed freebies and made false promises. But in the last 10 years, he was exposed. If the people of Kalkaji want development, they will give a send-off to Atishi. This lead (from Kalkaji) is the blessing of people of Kalkaji. Kejriwal has done no work in Delhi in the last 10 years. I believe aapda is going and BJP will come to power…We are here to serve the public, not for any position like CM,” said Bidhuri.
