Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Atishi, during a roadshow for the forthcoming Haryana elections, urged the public to cast their votes for AAP, pledging better public services in the state. Atishi stated, "There is one man who can provide free electricity for 24 hours. His name is Arvind Kejriwal. There is only one man who can make government schools better than private schools. There is only one man who can provide good roads to you; his name is Arvind Kejriwal... On October 5, press the 'Jhaadu'."
Atishi pointed out the deteriorating state of public infrastructure in Haryana, claiming that only Arvind Kejriwal could address these issues. "I was informed that the state government hospitals are in poor condition. The roads are battered, and there are prolonged power cuts," she said. She highlighted Kejriwal's success in improving public services in Delhi, asking, "When your son provides good government schools, free electricity, and good hospitals in Delhi, can't he provide the same for Haryana?" Atishi called on voters to support AAP, emphasizing the need for good schools, continuous electricity, and improved services for the elderly.
Atishi encouraged voters to participate actively in the October 5 elections, saying, "If you cast your vote on October 5, you will press 500 buttons. We have to make it with gratitude; we are ready." Concurrently, AAP MP Raghav Chadha addressed supporters in Bhiwani, criticizing the repetitive choice between Congress and BJP in Haryana. Chadha stated, "People of Haryana play the game of 'Congress or BJP' every election. Now, political parties and the people of Haryana are tired of this. There is now a new option--the Aam Aadmi Party. Choose that and see."
Haryana will go to the polls on October 5 to elect a 90-member state legislative assembly, with vote counting scheduled for October 8. (ANI)
