Delhi BJP President Virendraa Sachdeva claimed that Kejriwal was “making up imaginary stories” and added that it was “a drama to garner sympathy.””As the polling date is coming closer, Arvind Kejriwal is making up imaginary stories of attacks on him…Arvind Kejriwal does not answer the questions raised by us, the media and the people of his area. He was running away after running his car over BJP workers and is claiming that he was attacked…it was a drama to garner sympathy,” Sachdeva said.BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj accused Kejriwal of avoiding accountability and failing to fulfill his promises. She questioned the credibility of his claims of feeling threatened by three youths, given his constant security provided by the Punjab Police.”All three youths are undergoing treatment. I saw them sitting in a wheelchair. But today the cruelty and ruthlessness with which he signaled to drive his car is a sign of the dirty politics he plays. It also shows that he is afraid of his defeat,” Swaraj said.In retaliation, AAP MP Sanjay Singh alleged that BJP wanted to win the elections through hooliganism.”They are attacking Arvind Kejriwal with stones. Parvesh Verma’s people attacked him with stones. You want to win the elections by hooliganism. The workers of Aam Aadmi Party, the leaders of Aam Aadmi Party, have never bowed down before you. Why do they do such cowardly acts, what will they achieve by this? BJP is a party of cowards,” Singh said.Congress candidate from the New Delhi Assembly, Sandeep Dikshit, also condemned the incident but criticised both AAP and BJP for not addressing core public concerns.”I am not aware of what exactly has happened, but I can’t understand why this kind of politics is happening in Delhi. I am against of all such kinds of violence. I hope those who have been injured in this incident get well soon.” Dikshit said.Delhi will go to the polls on February 5 and the counting of votes will take place on February 8. A three-way contest is on the cards in Delhi between the ruling AAP, BJP and Congress.AAP dominated the 2020 assembly elections by winning 62 out of 70 seats while the BJP got eight seats. 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 seat.
