The Aam Aadmi Party’s tenure in Delhi was marked by broken promises, alleged Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday as he launched a scathing attack on former chief minister Arvind Kejriwal.
Shah addressed a BJP rally at Narela as part of the party’s campaign for the Delhi assembly elections scheduled for February 5.
“Elections would be held on February 5. The people of Narela will cast their vote. Counting will take place on February 8. And, on February 8, Delhi will be free from Aaapda. The misgovernance of Kejriwal will come to an end on February 8,” he said.

The home minister alleged that under Kejriwal’s governance, Delhi has gone from bad to worse as the national capital is struggling with supply of dirty water and waterlogging.
“In ten years, many states of the country where double-engine governments were formed, reached great heights but Delhi is struggling with waterlogging, dirty water and garbage," he said.
He said the BJP will make Delhi the world's number one capital, and also free the city from illegal Bangladeshi immigrants and Rohingyas if it gets the mandate in next month's elections.
"I promise you that you make the BJP win, and within two years we will free Delhi from illegal Bangladeshi immigrants and Rohingyas," he claimed.
Shah took aim at the AAP over a number of corruption allegations the party is facing, including liquor policy scam, Delhi Jal Board, ration distribution, purchase of DTC bus, and construction of classrooms in schools.
"The (former) education minister (Manish Sisodia) opened liquor shops near schools, temples and gurdwaras to spoil the younger generation, besides indulging in corruption worth crores of rupees. But at the end, both 'Bade Miya' (Kejriwal) and 'Chote Miya' (Sisodia) were put in jail," Shah said.
