CHANDIGARH: On the first day of his campaigning in Delhi, Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh on Monday slammed his Delhi counterpart and AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal on his “tall claims of providing cheap power to Delhiites”, calling him a “shifty character”, who had mastered the art of “deceit and lies to mislead the people”. Capt Amarinder also accused BJP of converting the entire country into Shaheen Bagh and using it to polarise elections in Delhi and, in the process, “destroying India’s foundations”.Taking on Kejriwal, the CM said the AAP leader had done nothing exceptional by providing cheap power and setting up mohalla clinics, as all chief ministers of the Congress-ruled states were doing the same. “Some people will surely be happy with these freebies but what has he really done for the development and progress of Delhi? What has he done for creating jobs for your children?” he said, while questioning Kejriwal on how many jobs had AAP given to youth in Delhi.Amarinder, who was addressing a public meeting in Hari Nagar in favour of Congress candidate Surinder Setia , said there had been virtually no progress in Delhi in the last five years. “In Punjab we have given jobs to 11 lakh youths,” he said adding that what Delhi needed was economic and industrial development. He, however, regretted that both AAP and BJP had sacrificed the interests of Delhiites in their turf war.Castigating BJP, Capt Amarinder said, “They are attempting to polarise the elections here with Shaheen Bagh but they will not succeed, as people have seen through their game.” He said the entire country had in fact become Shaheen Bagh with protests against CAA and NRC happening across the nation.“There is unrest in universities. Students are on the streets across the country, and are being shot at,” he alleged, adding that this was not the India for which so many had sacrificed themselves. “In contrast to the divisive politics of BJP, which had weakened the nation, the Congress had always worked towards strengthening India,” he claimed.Amarinder said in Assam, names of 19 lakh people had been included in the NRC. “Will they put them all in detention camps that they have built,” he asked adding that where would all those people, who are being brand as non-citizens, go?In an informal chat with mediapersons, Amarinder said, “Kejriwal is giving subsidy on power to only a section of residential consumers and spending Rs 1,600 to Rs 1,700 crores on it, while my government spends Rs 9,000 to Rs 10,000 crores on electricity subsidy to all sections of society. He is subsidising power only to a section of residential customers and making commercial and industrial consumers in Delhi pay through their nose by cross subsidising them.”While the CM refused to predict how many seats the Congress would win in Delhi, he said the party was in a strong position. He said the claims of an AAP wave in Delhi were a myth, as it was in Punjab in 2017.
