BJP National Spokesperson CR Kesavan on Monday attacked AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal, accusing him of betraying Delhi's people, bankrupting the government, and enabling scams and scandals over the past decade.

His remarks follow an audit report from the Comptroller and Auditor General, Girish Chandra Murmu, which revealed that the total cost of renovating the Delhi Chief Minister's residence, referred to as the 'Sheesh Mahal,' was Rs 33.66 crore.

"Arvind Kejriwal has muffled the truth and has now degenerated into a discredited and dishonest 'Sheesh Mahal' man. He can never cover up the frauds of the AAP. The CAG audit trail has been explosive and has exposed the AAP. The AAP government. has spent Rs 33.6 crores of taxpayers' money in the 'Sheesh Mahal'. That too during COVID when people were struggling for survival. The AAP and Kejriwal have betrayed the people of Delhi they have bankrupted the Delhi government and benefited by unleashing scams, scandals in a decade of disaster," Kesavan said.

He also expressed confidence in the party's victory in the upcoming assembly election, saying that the people of Delhi will sweep AAP into the dustbin of history and bless the BJP to form a government.

"The central schemes of the Prime Minister have not been able to reach the people of Delhi because it has been blocked by this dubious, devious AAP government. The people of Delhi have realised that the AAP has derailed in Delhi, and they have decided to put a full stop to this government of Delhi run by AAP. We are very sure that in the coming election, the people of Delhi will sweep AAP into the dustbin of history and bless the BJP to form a government so that Delhi takes its rightful place in our nation's growth story as we march towards becoming a Vikshit Bharat," Kesavan said.

The 'Sheesh Mahal' controversy centres around allegations that Arvind Kejriwal spent crores of rupees renovating his official residence during the Covid-19 pandemic, a period when many public development projects were stalled. (ANI)
