"Toilet in 'Sheesh Mahal' expensive than Delhi slums...": Amit Shah lashes out at Kejriwal

New Delhi [India], January 11 (ANI): In a no-holds-barred attack on the Aam Aadmi Party, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday said that the toilet in Kejriwal's 'Sheesh Mahal' is more expensive than the slums in the national capital, while strongly asserting that Delhi will be freed from the "AAP-da" on February 5.
Addressing the 'Slum Dwellers' conference here in New Delhi, Shah emphasized that the BJP's manifesto is the guarantee of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
"The BJP has listened to the pain, inconvenience and anger of the slum dwellers against the broken promises. They have made a list of all your problems and given it to BJP national president JP Nadda and Prime Minister Modi. Our manifesto will provide you relief from all your problems. The BJP manifesto is the guarantee of Prime Minister Modi... The BJP manifesto is not like the manifesto of 'AAP-Da'. We do what we say," he said.
Attacking the former Chief Minister further, Shah said that if Kejriwal is not able to do anything, then he should leave the government.
"People living in slums of Delhi are getting dirty water. People living in slums are asking us why Delhi is the most polluted city in the world. What did Arvind Kejriwal do in Delhi in the last 10 years? If you are not able to do anything Arvind Kejriwal, then you should leave the government, BJP will give all the benefits," Amit Shah said.
"I am here today to tell you that you can become the liberators of Delhi. You can free Delhi from many disasters, and mark my words--February 5 will be the day Delhi will be freed from AAP-da," he added.
The Home Minister further highlighted that PM Modi has given houses to more than 3.58 crore poor people in the country.
"This is PM Modi's guarantee and every person living in a slum will be given a permanent house. The toilet in his (Arvind Kejriwal) 'sheeshmahal' is more expensive than the slums," Shah said.
Sharpening his attacks on the AAP Chief, the Union Home Minister said that those who once led an anti-corruption movement, leveraging a saintly figure like Anna Hazare to rise to power, have now committed such massive corruption that they've broken all records.
"Today, I'm saying to the AAP--they have become a disaster for the people of Delhi. Not just that, Kejriwal himself has become a disaster for his own party. Wherever Kejriwal and Sisodia go, all the people of Delhi see is bottles of liquor. While the rest of the country has made progress, Delhi has sunk deeper into chaos. Open a tap, and dirty water comes out; open a window, and there's a foul smell; step outside, and you're greeted by broken roads. Even during Chhath Puja, people couldn't bathe properly because of the polluted Yamuna. Garbage heaps on the streets and filth everywhere--this AAP-da has turned Delhi into a living hell," Amit Shah said.
"They (AAP) have deceived slum dwellers, misled the people of Yamuna, and even betrayed Anna Hazare. Their deceit hasn't stopped at Delhi--they've misled Punjab too," he added.
The Delhi assembly polls will be held in a single phase on February 5 and the counting of votes will take place on February 8. (ANI)
