The Congress campaign was largely bereft of star campaigners. The state election commission announced the MCD polls on November 4, a high stakes battle for the three main players: BJP, AAP and Congress. The BJP needs to win the MCD polls as it has been out of power in the Delhi government for over 2.5 decades; the AAP needs to win to get deeper roots in Delhi politics; the Congress has been out of power in both the Delhi government and the MCD and to remain politically relevant it needs something to hang on to.
BJP national spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia announced that the BJP will regularise 8 lakh street vendors as well as their weekly markets to give them a dignified life after it comes back in power. In a press conference he further stated that night markets will be set up in a total of 12 zones in Delhi, and special arrangements will be made for women’s markets.
Leader of the opposition Ramvir Singh Bidhuri said that the BJP cares about all sections of people while Kejriwal gives only lip service. During the Corona period, when there was an epidemic-like situation everywhere, the PM provided financial assistance to street vendors by giving 210,000 each for livelihoods. Kejriwal also promised 20,000 to vendors, but did not provide it to anyone,” Bidhuri stated.
