New Delhi, May 1
Congress’s North East Delhi candidate Kanhaiya Kumar on Wednesday met Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s wife Sunita at her residence to extend his support to the alliance’s fight to “save Constitution and democracy”.
Talking to mediapersons after the meeting, Kumar said, “We are fighting against the dictatorship that is prevailing in the country. We will together save democracy and Constitution.”
Kanhaiya said, “We are not only fighting on seats in Delhi but the INDIA bloc parties are fighting on all 543 seats. We are united. Whatever strategy is formed, it will not be for one party or one candidate. It will be for the people of Delhi.”
He asserted that the elections are a “fight for the self-respect” of the people of Delhi.
“Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was put in jail. The rights of people of Delhi were snatched by bringing an ordinance to overturn the Supreme Court judgment. The people of Delhi were humiliated,” he said.
Asked about the impact of the resignation of Arvinder Singh Lovely from the post of Delhi Congress chief and his criticism of his candidature, Kanhaiya said such things happen during elections.
