The Congress leader also said that Arvind Kejriwal was seeking support from chief ministers of other states to win the elections.
Alka Lamba, the Congress candidate in the Kalkaji assembly constituency, on Thursday claimed that Delhi CM Atishi and AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal are losing the Delhi elections.
Speaking to ANI, Lamba, who left AAP in 2019, also questioned why Arvind Kejriwal was not wearing the “white cap” which he used to sport during the Indian Against Corruption movement.
“…Why is Arvind Kejriwal not wearing the ‘white cap’ which he used to wear in the Ramlila Ground?… Arvind Kejriwal and Delhi CM Atishi are losing the elections…The people of the Kalkaji Assembly constituency are living in worse conditions…” Lamba told ANI.
She said that Kejriwal was seeking support from chief ministers of other states to win the elections. Lamba also accused the AAP of being the “B team” of the BJP in Delhi.
