New Delhi:
A day after an alleged attack on his vehicle during election campaigns, AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday said his life was dedicated to the country but claimed Delhi had never witnessed such a campaign when a 'murderous attack' was attempted to be carried out on a former prime minister.
The AAP has alleged that New Delhi BJP candidate Parvesh Verma's “goons” attacked Mr Kejriwal during campaigning in the constituency on Saturday.
“The people of Delhi have never witnessed such campaigns and violence in which a murderous attack was launched on a former Prime Minister. This is their way of campaigning because they are losing badly,” Kejriwal said, targeting the BJP.
He also laughed off Mr Verma's claim that Kejriwal will lose the New Delhi seat by 20,000 votes. “Let him live in dreams for a few days,” he told the media.
Kejriwal also said he has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi about a housing scheme for government employees, proposing that the Delhi government will build houses if the Center provides land.
He said the scheme could be started with sanitation workers as beneficiaries and later, other government employees could also be provided with houses on easy terms.
