Kejriwal Spreading ‘Lies’ In Goa About Providing Employment, Alleges Alka Lamba
Lamba also alleged that AAP is spending the taxpayers' money on promoting themselves
Mumbai: Ahead of the Goa Assembly Elections, Congress leader Alka Lamba on Sunday alleged that Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal was making false promises of providing employment if voted to power in Goa.
While addressing a press conference at Congress House in Panaji on Sunday, Lamba said, ‘Kejriwal was on the spree of spreading ‘lies’ in Goa. The unemployment rate in Delhi is higher than the national unemployment rate by 23.5 per cent.”
She said that Kejriwal was not being able to provide for the unemployed in Delhi and questioned, “The Party (AAP) is in power in Delhi but still have not given anything to the unemployed people there.”
Taking a swipe at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, Lamba said, “Where are locals in these hoardings? Where is the face of Goa on these hoardings? Will these two parties (AAP and TMC) rule Goa by sitting in Delhi and West Bengal? Can Goa be an experimental laboratory for both of these parties?”
Her remarks came when she landed at Goa airport and the National Highway was dotted with the hoardings of Delhi Chief Minister and West Bengal Chief Minister.
She further stated that the Delhi government has spent Rs 940 crore only on the advertisements related to the pollution while it has no details of how much amount has been invested to control the pollution.
“People of the national capital were suffering due to rampant pollution and if the money was spent wisely, for the service of the people, then they would not have suffered,” she added. Lamba also alleged that AAP is spending the taxpayers’ money on promoting themselves.
Goa assembly elections have been scheduled to take place next year.
