Meenakshi Lekhi, Minister of State for External Affairs and Culture and twotime MP from New Delhi, believes that the AAP-Congress alliance in Delhi for the Lok Sabha elections is nothing more than a union of the corrupt, which is bound to fail miserably. Though she has not been re-fielded from the New Delhi seat, she says she is determined to serve the people and the party to the best of her capacity. Excerpts from an interview she gave to The Sunday Guardian:

Q: Is the NDA likely to achieve its target of 400 seats in the upcoming parliamentary elections? 

A: Absolutely. There is no doubt that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi the NDA is going to cross the 400-seat target set for the coming elections. The people of India want to march towards Viksit Bharat under Modiji’s leadership. BJP’s vote share will only increase in the upcoming elections based on the work accomplished over the past 10 years.

Q: Do you think the INDI Alliance or rival parties have any answer to the Modi government’s women-led development initiatives?
