"BJP will stop free education if voted to power," alleges Arvind Kejriwal; hits back at CM Yogi

New Delhi [India], January 23 (ANI): Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party is planning to stop free education in the government schools if they are voted to power after the conclusion of the Delhi assembly polls.
Adressing a public rally here on Thursday, Kejriwal said," Three days ago, the BJP announced that they will stop the free education in the government schools if they are voted to power. They announced ahead of the polls. I was also saying it. If you vote for them, they will close the government schools," he alleged, referring to the BJP.
"So you see, If (you push) a wrong button is pushed, the government schools of your children will be shut down," he asked.
He also took a dig at Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. "Like, Uttar Pradesh, the government schools will turn into a dilapidated condition".
He warned the voters, " If you got to enrol your children in private schools; a student is charged at least Rs 5000, and Rs 10, 000 for two children per month, in case you push a wrong button."
Earlier in the day, CM Yogi Adityanath launched a scathing attack on Arvind Kejriwal, accusing him of enabling the provision of Aadhaar cards to Bangladeshi infiltrators through machines in the homes of AAP leaders.
Addressing a public rally here, CM Yogi said, "These people have turned Delhi into a garbage dump. These days Arvind Kejriwal is repeatedly talking about Uttar Pradesh, but he should not forget that now people are looking at Uttar Pradesh as a model...They settled Bangladeshi infiltrators, and Rohingyas here. These Bangladeshi infiltrators are being given Aadhaar cards through Aadhaar-making machines in the houses of Aam Aadmi Party leaders... Today, go and see the roads of Delhi and Noida, you will see the difference."
The Delhi Assembly elections will take place in a single phase on February 5, and the counting of votes is set for February 8. A total of 699 candidates are competing for the 70 assembly seats in Delhi.
The Congress, which was in power for 15 consecutive years in Delhi, has suffered setbacks in the last two assembly elections and has failed to win any seats. In contrast, the AAP dominated the 2015 and 2020 assembly elections by winning 67 and 62 seats, respectively, out of a total of 70 seats, while the BJP got only three and eight seats in these elections.
