Days of Narendra Modi govt are numbered: JP Agarwal
New Delhi: With the polls in Delhi approaching and just a few days remaining for the candidates to campaign, Congress' Chandni Chowk candidate JP Agarwal on Saturday intensified his efforts to reach voters in his constituency.
While greeting voters on morning walks in parks across Pashchim Vihar and Shakoor Basti, Agarwal said that the Narendra Modi government's days are numbered. He said that the results, which are due on May 23 will confirm this once and for all for everyone to see.
With several residents receiving the four time MP heartwarmingly, Agarwal said if he wins the upcoming election, he will make sure that he is available for his electorate and listens to their problems.
Talking to people Mr Agarwal said, "You should come out in good numbers to exercise your franchise and vote this government out of power. Every vote counts and therefore every single vote is necessary to teach the BJP a lesson. The public has made up its mind to vote the 'jumlebaz' and misleading government out of power."
Agarwal is going up against sitting MP and Cabinet Minister Harsh Vardhan of the BJP and Pankaj Gupta of AAP. While Vardhan seems to be the strongest opponent for a heavyweight like Agarwal, it remains to be seen which way the people of Chandni Chowk will go.
Agarwal's campaign has been focused on reaching out to voters in the forms of padyatras, two of which were held on Saturday in Gandhi Market and Lal Kuan. He met voters and urged people to vote for him and his party to form the government at Centre.
Agarwal thanked his supporters and party workers and said that their support gives him hope for the nation. During his Padyatras he said, "Looking at the people's attachment for the Congress party during my Padyatra, I am convinced that Congress-led government is going to be formed after May 23. I am very happy to see the positive response of people of all sections towards our public outreach campaigns."
