The Congress has criticized AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal's 'Pujari Granthi Samman Yojana,' accusing him of attempting to improve his image with election promises. Kejriwal promises a monthly allowance for temple priests if re-elected. Congress argues these are empty pledges made to influence voters before the Delhi Assembly elections.

The Congress launched a scathing attack on AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal on Monday, accusing him of desperate measures to bolster his image through the 'Pujari Granthi Samman Yojana.'
According to Congress, this initiative, promising temple priests a monthly allowance of Rs 18,000, is a tactic aimed at regaining lost political ground ahead of the upcoming assembly elections.
Despite Kejriwal's various promises to multiple voter groups, Congress believes these assurances are hollow and strategically timed for electoral gains. Meanwhile, the Delhi government clarifies that several touted schemes are not official policies, warning the public against sharing personal information.
