Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) candidate from the Jangpura Assembly seat, Manish Sisodia on Sunday said that if he is voted to power, then, he will sit with Arvind Kejriwal as a cabinet minister and Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi and it won't be only him who will get that position but the people of his constituency.
Addressing a public rally in Jangpura, Sisodia stated, "If I become MLA - I'll sit with Arvind Kejriwal as a cabinet member and deputy CM. It's not only me but the people of Jangpura who will become the deputy CM - as just one call from anyone of Jangpura at any govt office will be enough for any work to be done. No govt employee will have the courage to not pick the call of someone from the Deputy CM's constituency..." "People want to see Arvind Kejriwal as the CM again. I want to urge the people of Jangpura that now when the whole of Delhi is choosing Arvind Kejriwal, they should also choose me so that I can work more on education and work in tandem with Arvind Kejriwal's vision... I will work for the betterment of Jangpura..." said Sisodia while speaking to ANI. As the Delhi Assembly elections approach, the triangular battle between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), AAP, and the Congress has intensified, with all parties criticising one another's performance in developing the national capital. The Delhi Assembly elections will take place in a single phase on February 5, with the counting of votes 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 failed to win any seats. In contrast, AAP dominated the 2015 and 2020 assembly elections, winning 67 and 62 seats, respectively, out of a total of 70 seats, while BJP secured only three and eight seats in these elections.
