Right ahead of the Delhi Assembly Electiꦉons, an aggressive poster war erupted between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Aam Aadmi ꦿParty (AAP) in a bid to sway public opinion.
The development came amid an intensifying feud between the two parties where AAP recently accused the BJP of voteꩵr deletions and cash distribution to buy votes an😼d in return BJP slammed AAP over alleged vote rigging.
On Thursday, January 2, the BJP shared a poster of AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal, alleging that multiple fraudulent voter 🐈entries, ranging from ages 40 to 80, were registered at a single address without the homeowner's knowledge. BJP described this as "a new game by Kejriwal to rig votes."
AAP countered the🍒 accusation with a video poster of Kejriwal being labelled as "GOAT" (Greatest of All Time).
Kejriwal yesterday also accused the BJP of hypocrisy, claiming that while the party opposes honorariums for religious l🌄eaders, it simultaneously pushes f💖or temple demolitions.
On December 31, Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) launched a ൩scathing attack on Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal, accusing him of using religious symbolism for electoral gains. The party shared a poster of Kejriwal on social media calling him﷽ a ‘Chunavi Hindu’.
This comes in response to Kejriwal’s latest scheme – “Pujari Granthi Samman⛎ Rashi Scheme” – a proposal that promises Rs 18,000 per month to temple priests (pujaris) and gurdwara gr💙anthis.
The Delhi BJP mocked the AAP supremo in a series of posts on X. The arty released a poster of him dressed in a theatrical priest-like avatar, reminiscent of actor Rajpal Yadav’s character in the 2007 film Bhool Bhulaiyaa. The image showed Kejriwal adﷺorned with rudraksha beads, flower garlands, and vermilion on his forehead, with incense st▨icks tucked behind his ear, in what the BJP described as a staged, election-time display of religiosity.
“Mandir jana hai bas mere liye ek chalaava, pujariyon ka samman bas mera chunavi dikhava, sanatan dharma ka maine humesha mazak banaya,” the poster☂ read. ("Visiting temples for me is a cunning guise, respect for priests is an election façade, I’ve always ridiculed Sanatana Dharma.")
AAP MP Sanjay Singh on Wednesday accus🀅ed the BJP of attempting to delete the names of Purvanchali residents from the voter list in Delhi an♏d said the saffron party was targeting "our Purvanchali brothers, calling them Bangladeshis and Rohingyas".
Purvanchalis are people from eastern Uttar Pradesh and Bihar who have been settled in Delhi for decades and form a significant portion of ﷽the city's voters.
"The BJP is targeting our Purvanchali brothers, calling them Bangladeshis and Rohingyas and working to delete their votes. I will not stay silent. I will fight this injustꦓice on the streets and 𒁏in Parliament", Singh said.
"In Shahdara alone, 11,000 Purvanchali votes were targeted for deletion. Similarly, in Janakpuri, 24 BJP workers applied for the removal of 4,874 votes, and 🃏in Tughlakaba𒊎d, applications were made to delete 594 votes," he further added.
2025 kickstarted with a bitter politcal exchange between the Aam Admi Party (AAP) and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh ♕(RSS) as AAP's national convenor Arvind Kejriwal in a letter to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat accused the BJP of voter deletions and cash distribution ahꦇead of Delhi Assembly election.
While raising several questions in his letter to the RSS chief, the former Delhi CM asked Bhagwat if the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) endorsed the "wrongdoing𓆉s" like BJP leaders꧃ distributing money openly to buy votes and deleting Purvanchali and Dalit voters.
