Congress is also not far behind in the race and has projected Bansi Lal as its candidate. By fielding EDMC councillor Bansi Lal, Congress has weakened BJP's prospect of winning from the assembly constituency.
The Bhartiya Janta Party may be considering Krishna Nagar as a safe seat with their CM candidate Kiran Bedi contesting from the constituency, yet a tough fight is expected between the party and AAP. But Congress is also not far behind in the race and has projected Bansi Lal as its candidate. By fielding EDMC councillor Bansi Lal, Congress has weakened BJP's prospect of winning from the assembly constituency. Bansi Lal is confident that people of Krishna Nagar will elect him because he understands their problems well and will be available for them 24*7.
Here's are the excerpts from the interview with the congress candidate:
Congress's graph has gone down in last two years. Why should people of Krishna Nagar choose you?
Sometimes when we get bored of home-made food, we try outside food but once we realize that it is bad for health we avoid it. Same rule applies here. Congress has worked for the development of Delhi for 15 years. People of Krishna Nagar gave their votes to other parties in the last assembly election because they were lured by fake promises. This time they will not do the same mistake.
Your competitor Kiran Bedi is BJP 's CM candidate and it seems almost impossible for any other party to hope to win.
I'm familiar with the residents of Krishna Nagar and have been working for them 24*7. I know each and every problem of the area. Harsh Vardhan has done nothing for Krishna Nagar, he was never available for the people here. As of Kiran Bedi, if she is so confident of her chances of becoming the CM, she should have fought against Arvind Kejriwal.
PM Modi is campaigning for their candidates, but Gandhi family is nowhere to be seen. Will it not effect the campaign of congress candidates?
In the recent J&K assembly polls, prime minister Narendra Modi addressed a rally in favour of Hina Bhatt but what result they got in the end? We get votes based on our work. I am available for the people of my area 24 x7.
Congress claims that Sheila Dikshit's government had done a lot of developmental work, then why she is not contesting the elections?
Yes, Sheila Dikshit had done a lot for the development of Delhi. The fact that voters of Delhi did not choose her despite of bringing so much development in the national capital during her tenure has left her in shock. Party has offered her ticket this time too but she denied. She doesn't deserve the defeat.
