Former Delhi Prime Minister Arvind Kejriwal launches Mahila Adalat program
The political turmoil over the Delhi Assembly elections has reached its peak. The ruling Aam Aadmi party is trying to make women’s safety and rising crime a big issue in the capital ahead of the election. On this issue, Aam Aadmi Party chief and former chief minister Arvind Kejriwal called ‘Mahila Adalat’ at Delhi’s Tyagraj Stadium today. Here, Kejriwal took a swipe at the Center while addressing women.
Kejriwal said how long will women in Delhi have to live in fear. It has been 12 years since the Nirbhaya incident. Then the whole country took to the streets. After this incident, it seemed that crimes against women would end, but they are increasing. Today in Delhi, parents’ hearts start beating at 7 pm when their daughters go to college. Can anyone tell me why the criminals were not caught in Delhi?
Kejriwal says – Center doesn’t care about you
The former prime minister further said that the central government was exerting control over him. Amit Shah sits. They don’t care about you. Ten years ago you entrusted me with the responsibility of repairing schools and hospitals. I show you how to fix them. You say make electricity cheap, I make electricity free, but the responsibility for the security of the people of Delhi is the responsibility of Amit Shahji’s home ministry, but he cannot provide security to the people.
He said that according to central government statistics, three to four rape incidents occur in Delhi every day. I would say, Amit Shahji, law and order may not be a problem for you, but it is a big problem for those who are victimized by crime. They have only one job and that is to overthrow the opposition government and put Kejriwal and Hemant Soren in jail.
“BJP people are currently sleeping in slums and in three months they will demolish them”
You are not my vote bank, the former Delhi chief minister said in Mahila Adalat. You are my mother and sister. Today, Delhi has over 300,000 CCTV cameras installed, the highest in the world. They don’t need you, they need your vote. Now people from the BJP are sleeping in slums. The slums they sleep in today, in three months they will demolish them all.
Kejriwal said, I want to ask them, when they demolished the slums of the people of Delhi, when the women and children cried, when they fell at the feet of the people of the BJP, where did you go? Now you people act and go into the ghetto. I want to tell the BJP that if you cannot handle the system in Delhi then you should state Amit Shahji, please say once we will not be able to handle Delhi. We don’t have time. Our women are strong and they take care of themselves.
Kejriwal said – We will also give you Rs 2100
Mentioning other issues, Kejriwal said that after education, treatment, electricity bills are all free, now we will give you Rs 2,100. These PPP people are abusing us. The BJP has made it difficult for people to manage household expenses. Flour, rice and beans all became expensive. I want to ask the BJP, you are campaigning but please tell me who is your groom? A recent survey showed that 60% women voted for the Aam Aadmi Party.
Atish asks: How long will the women of Delhi have to live in fear?
Meanwhile, Delhi Chief Minister Atish said while addressing women, how long will women here have to live in fear? Now is the time to raise your voice. It is time to show the BJP that the daughter of the country is the Queen of Jhansi. Now, the daughters of Delhi will take responsibility for their own safety. We will provide safety to every daughter of Delhi. December 16 is a dark day in the history of Delhi.
He further said that on this very day, a horrific incident of violence took place in Delhi’s daughter Nirbhaya. We all fight this crime. We are determined not to let accidents like this happen, but even today, Derry’s daughters are not safe in the dark. Atishi strongly attacked the central government on the issue of women’s safety. Today, even 12 years after the Nirbhaya incident, Delhi’s daughters are still not safe. Today I want to ask, what are those responsible for women’s safety doing? Why has crime against women increased by 40% in Delhi today?
CM claims: More than 14,000 crime incidents occurred in Delhi in one year
The CM said that more than 14,000 crimes against women took place in Delhi in the past year. In the past five years, more than 3.5 million women have been raped in Delhi. The BJP-ruled central government bears responsibility for the safety of women in Delhi. How long will women in Delhi have to live in fear? It is time to show the BJP that the daughter of the country is the Queen of Jhansi. Now the daughters of Delhi will take responsibility for their own safety. We will provide safety to every daughter of Delhi. At the ‘Mahila Adalat’ program held at Delhi’s Thyagaraj Stadium, some women became emotional while narrating their ordeals.
