Battle for Delhi: What’s AAP? ask PM Modi, Sonia Gandhi
New Delhi: The campaign for the Delhi Assembly elections reached its peak on Sunday with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress president Sonia Gandhi and AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal pulling out all the stops to take on their respective rivals.
As Mrs Gandhi jumped into the campaign for the first time by addressing a massive rally in south Delhi’s Badarpur area, the three leaders traded charges and counter-charges, with the Congress chief terming Mr Modi as a “pracharak (campaigner)” and Mr Kejriwal as “dharnabaaz (agitator)”. She also cautioned voters to guard against the “politics of hatred”.
In his rally in Dwarka, the third in the city and the second in two days, Mr Modi made a fervent appeal to the electorate not to vote for those who believed in “dharnas”.
