Kejriwal Blames BJP for Neglecting the Legacies of Bhagat Singh and Ambedkar

Published

on

Arvind Kejriwal, national convener of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and former Chief Minister of Delhi, accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday of disregarding the legacies of freedom fighter Bhagat Singh and social reformer Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar since assuming power in the national capital.

During AAP’s event, ‘Ek Shaam Shaheedon Ke Naam,’ held to honor Shaheedi Diwas and pay tribute to Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, and Sukhdev, Kejriwal emphasized that AAP entered politics to realize the aspirations of these remarkable figures, rather than seeking political control.

“Our idols are Bhagat Singh and Babasaheb Ambedkar. Bhagat Singh understood that simply ousting the British was insufficient; societal structures also needed transformation. If not, new rulers would merely take their place. Sadly, this has come to pass—today’s leaders are even worse than those under British rule,” Kejriwal stated.

He also criticized the BJP for allegedly removing portraits of Bhagat Singh and Ambedkar from government offices just 48 hours after taking power in Delhi. “I want to ask them, who has sacrificed more for the nation than Bhagat Singh?” he demanded.

The former CM further condemned the BJP for limiting a free bus ride scheme for women, claiming they were denied free pink tickets unless they downloaded a mobile application. “Why are they doing this? Instead of enhancing services, they are scaling back what’s already available. By this point, women should be receiving Rs 2,500, but that hasn’t happened,” he argued, blaming the BJP for failing to keep its campaign promises.

Senior AAP leader Gopal Rai affirmed that the party was founded on the principles of struggle and will continue its mission nationwide. “Our loss in Delhi was the result of certain tactics, but our core strength lies in our dedicated workers. They believed we would be finished, but we will return with even greater determination across the country,” he proclaimed.
