AHMEDABAD, AUG 1
Ahead of the upcoming Assembly polls in Gujarat, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Monday hit out at the ruling BJP in Gujarat where it hurts the most, as he exhorted a large gathering in the Saurashtra region to vote for the AAP if they wanted employment and education for their youth or go for the BJP to feed them spurious liquor.

Referring to last week’s hooch tragedy in the Saurashtra region that claimed 42 lives while at least 100 others were hospitalised, he took potshots at Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel and State BJP president CR Paatil “for not even bothering to visit the victims of the tragedy and their families.”

The Delhi Chief Minister said, “I was shocked to learn that illicit liquor worth thousands of crores is sold in Gujarat day in and day out for many years. I asked the families of the hooch tragedy victims and they told me liquor is available openly and they all drink every day.”

“Not only in villages, it is the same story in the cities. In fact, it is shocking that people can also get home delivery of illicit liquor,” he added, and asked, “Who runs such a huge racket?”

He said he was here to give an employment guarantee with five announcements. The first is that in the first five years of the AAP’s rule, every unemployed person will have a job. “I am not saying this off-hand. I have created 12 lakh jobs in Delhi, we know how to do it because of clean intentions and better education. Second guarantee is that we will create 10 lakh government jobs and again, we have already planned with our team how to make this happen,” he said.

Kejriwal said, “Third guarantee is that every unemployed youth will get a stipend of Rs 3,000 a month until all of them get jobs. Fourth is that we will bring legislation providing for stringent penalties in government exam paper leaks, which is a regular phenomenon in Gujarat. We will stop this.” The AAP chief added that the fifth guarantee is to make job enrolment in the cooperative sector transparent “unlike now when nepotism and corruption is the order of the day.”

Earlier in July, the AAP leader had promised free electricity his party receives the people’s mandate in the state Assembly elections, scheduled for later this year.
Kejriwal also addressed the issue of exam papers being leaked in the state. Saying that such incidents are causing a great deal of stress to students, Kejriwal promised that his party will implement a law against exam papers being leaked and punish the mafia behind such crimes if they were to be elected to power in Gujarat.
