In a heated political exchange ahead of the Delhi Assembly elections, AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal responded vigorously to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's critiques. Kejriwal labeled the BJP as directionless in the capital, lacking leadership and issues, and referred to Modi's jibes as indicative of a party in 'disaster.'

Kejriwal criticized the BJP for its seemingly unfulfilled promises, arguing that his government has consistently worked for the betterment of Delhi's citizens. He juxtaposed the BJP's promise of housing development with AAP's achievements in education, highlighting a disparity in delivery.

The AAP supremo downplayed BJP initiatives such as housing for slum dwellers, pointing to what he described as the saffron party's hollow assurances. Kejriwal accused the BJP of neglecting Delhi's Purvanchali community and failing to extend ownership rights promised years ago.
