Delhi election: AAP workers to hold 65,000 meetings in city, do ‘revri pe charcha’
Ahead of the upcoming Assembly election, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Friday announced a campaign to publicise the subsidised services provided by the Delhi government. The drive — ‘Revri par charcha’ — will be run from November 25 to December 10, during which party workers will hold 65,000 public meetings across the city to inform residents about the “freebies” or “revris” provided by the AAP government. The campaign takes its name from a comment made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2022, when he, in an apparent dig at AAP, said that “revri culture” had saddened the average taxpayer. Mr. Kejriwal has since raised the issue several times, connecting the rising inflation with the need for subsidised services. Last month, the former Delhi Chief Minister likened himself to a “halwai” [confectioner] “who has given six freerevris to citizens of Delhi — electricity, education, water, health care, pilgrimage for the elderly, and bus travel for women”.
