PANAJI
The Aam Aadmi Party on Saturday lambasted the BJP for running out of ideas to counter the growing popularity of AAP in Goa.
In the press note, State AAP convenor Rahul Mhambre said that BJP leader Amit Shah’s baseless attack on AAP during his address to BJP workers on Thursday showed that he was unable to respond to the fact that Kejriwal’s guarantees have captured the imagination of the people of Goa.
“Amit Shah ji used the word “free” multiple times in a feeble attempt to mock AAP’s assurances. But he could not erase the fact that he himself had made similar assurances of free electricity, free education and free bus travel for women in recent elections in other states,” stated Mhambre in the press note.
Mhambre further stated that Shah is famous for his fake election promises, whereas Arvind Kejriwal is famous for fulfilling all of his election promises. He also reminded the BJP leaders that what they mock as “free”, is actually not free but is the people’s own tax money which is being returned to the people in the form of basic amenities.
“Commuters were put at extreme inconvenience and even risk as roads were shut without warning”, Mhambre concluded.
