The enthusiastic response of the people is evident from the fact that people are fed up with the Kejriwal government, said Bidhuri.

Additionally, BJP deployed mobile manifesto vans across all 70 Assembly constituencies in Delhi through its district organisations. Till Thursday, these vans had collected 60,754 suggestions, which are now being compiled.

The van programme was launched by Delhi BJP election in-charge Baijayant Panda and co-incharge Alka Gurjar, among others.

Apart from RWAs, meetings were also conducted with sanitation workers, the Poorvanchal community, and Jat and Gurjar community members, he said.

Earlier, Union Minister of State for Corporate Affairs and Road, Transport and Highways Harsh Malhotra highlighted the path-breaking reforms of JAM (Jan Dhan Yojna, Aadhaar and Mobile) Trinity Schemes, Digital Transactions and Ayushman Bharat-PMJAY.
