'AAP's Delhi win a victory of freebies'

February 11, 2020 16:30

Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij on Tuesday described the AAP win in the Delhi Assembly elections as a victory of freebies. The BJP leader took to Twitter as trends indicated that the Aam Aadmi Party would sweep the Delhi polls.

"Delhi ke chunaav mein muddhay haar gaye, muftkhori jeet gai (in the Delhi elections, issues lost, freebies won)," he wrote on his Twitter handle. The apparent reference was to cheap power and water besides free bus rides for women in the capital. Apart from these, the AAP had highlighted its performance in the education and health sectors during the campaign. Many BJP leaders, however, focused on issues like anti-CAA protests. PTI
