Won't have to go back to jail if you vote AAP on May 25: Delhi CM
The chief minister held roadshows seeking votes for AAP candidates and alleged the BJP will stop all the good work his government is doing for the city
Seeking support from the electorate for his party and INDIA alliance, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal during a roadshow in Delhi on Sunday (May 12) said if people choose the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on May 25, he won't have to go back to jail.
Kejriwal was accompanied by Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. The Delhi chief minister held a roadshow in Moti Nagar in support of Somnath Bharti, AAP candidate from the New Delhi Lok Sabha seat.
Vote AAP to save me from jail
He also held a roadshow in Uttam Nagar along with Mann to garner support for the party's West Delhi candidate Mahabal Mishra. "I have to go back to jail after 20 days. If you choose jhadu (AAP's symbol broom), I won't have to go back to jail," the chief minister said at the roadshow in Moti Nagar.
The AAP national convener is out on an interim bail till June 1. He has to surrender on June 2.
"They sent me to jail because I worked for you. The BJP does not want that the work of Delhi people is done," he said. Kejriwal alleged that his insulin injections were stopped for 15 days inside Tihar jail. "If I went back to jail, the BJP would stop your work, free electricity, degrade schools and shut down hospitals and Mohalla Clinics," he cautioned the voters.
There is dictatorship
He also asked people to vote for Bharti and claimed that he would be available for people even at odd hours. At the roadshow in West Delhi, he said that people are saying that God has brought him out of jail to defeat the BJP.
"There is dictatorship in the country. We have to end this dictatorship," he added.
The polling for all the seven Lok Sabha constituencies in Delhi will take place on May 25.
