The Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party President Sh. Vijay Goel today lambasted Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for ignoring problems related to people of Delhi and putting up a façade of honesty. He said that Kejriwal is least bothered about problems of people in Delhi, all his efforts are towards getting maximum political mileage through controversies in run up to Lok Sabha polls.
Addressing a party function to commemorate the death anniversary of Pandit Deendayal Upadhya, one of the founding members of the party, Sh. Goel said,“If the CM can order named FIRs in case of Gas prices which appear to be beyond his jurisdiction, what is stopping him from naming former Congress Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit and other Congress leaders in CWG scam case which is under Delhi government’s jurisdiction. Why an unnamed FIR has been filed in this case?” said Sh. Goel.
“Kejriwal is trying to put a façade of honesty when two of his ministers-Somnath Bharati and Manish Sisodia- are corrupt and indulge in unethical practices. Why is Kejriwal protecting them?,” said Sh. Goel.
“It is clear that Kejriwal is trying to divert attention of people away from the issues of governance as he has failed to deliver on this front. He should give priority to addressing problems of Delhi’ites instead of trying to play to the gallery on old and stale issues which are already in public domain.”
Sh. Goel said Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya’s life was simple and he dedicated his complete life to build up Bharatiya Jansangh which later became Bharatiya Janata Party. Despite living a selfless and simple life, he never boasted about it and worked silently towards nation-building. Some leaders today are wearing their ‘simplicity’ up their sleeve, they should learn from Pandit ji’s life.
Addressing the function, BJP national secretary Sh. Shyam Jaju said, “Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya’s philosophy of integral humanism is a source of inspiration and guiding principle of millions of BJP cadres. It is time that we work relentlessly to bring a clean, determined nationalist government to power under the Prime Ministership of Sh. Narendra Modi so that these ideals propagated by Pandit ji can be realised.”
