Delhi poll: BJP leaders spend night in slums; AAP chief says they’re doing ‘jhuggi tourism’
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday accused the BJP of indulging in “jhuggi tourism” ahead of the Delhi Assembly election due in February next year. Mr. Kejriwal made the comment during his party’s 13th foundation day ceremony even as leaders of the BJP’s city unit visited 250 slum clusters in the national capital as part of their ‘Ratri Pravas Samvaad’ (night stay dialogue) campaign. Addressing party workers, the former Delhi Chief Minister said, “On Tuesday evening, some BJP leaders are going to stay in slums, just like people take a day off to visit Goa for leisure.” “Spending one night with the poor is mocking their poverty. If you have the courage, live in slums for three or four months to see the conditions in which people there survive,” said Mr. Kejriwal. He accused the BJP-led Centre of conducting, through its agencies, demolition drives against the city’s slum colonies.
