During a recent press conference, Arvind Kejriwal, the former chief minister of Delhi and AAP leader, accused the BJP of mimicking AAP's initiatives in their election manifesto for the Delhi polls scheduled for February 5. Kejriwal alleged that the promises made by the BJP echoed AAP's existing offerings, which they have criticized in the past.

Kejriwal boldly challenged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to reconsider his stance on freebies, often criticized by him. He urged Modi to acknowledge the benefits of free handouts, which the BJP is now promising, pointing out what he perceives as contradictions in their political rhetoric.

Highlighting the lack of new initiatives in the BJP's manifesto, Kejriwal claimed it fails to address critical issues like law and order improvements. He also suggested that the manifesto's alleged proposal to close mohalla clinics is out of touch, promising to canvass public opinion on the matter across Delhi.
