After accusing the BJP of inaction and highlighting their agenda in the upcoming municipal polls, the latest Aam Aadmi Party posters feature the party taking the broom into its own hands and promising to make Delhi garbage free.
Video on social media
In the last leg of their election campaign, the AAP has released posters of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal with a broom in his hand, sweeping the streets. The posters, which read ‘To make Delhi clean, vote for Kejriwal’, have been put up as hoardings and also behind autorickshaws. These images have also been collated as a video, which is being widely circulated on social media.
“The BJP has turned Delhi into a garbage dump in its 10-year tenure in the Delhi municipal corporations. Sanitation workers are not paid salaries from time-to-time, and contractual labour is yet to be made permanent. These issues have remained the focus of AAP campaigns,” AAP Delhi convener Dilip Pandey said.
Manifesto soon
Mr. Kejriwal has been stressing in his election campaigns that if his party is voted to power in the municipalities then they will make Delhi garbage free in one year. He said that if they can fulfil promise of providing subsidies for electricity and water, they can also fulfil their promise of cleaning the city.
Sources from the party said the AAP is planning big announcements for sanitation workers in its manifesto, which will be released in a few days. These will include payment of salaries on the seventh of every month and insurance policies for sanitation workers, besides protection gear for lifting trash.
