CM Atishi reaffirms AAP’s commitment to promises ahead of Delhi polls
New Delhi, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi on Tuesday reiterated that the Aam Aadmi Party will fulfil all its promises, including a monthly allowance of ₹2,100 for women, if voted back to power in the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections due in February next year.
Atishi conducted a 'padayatra' in the Tilak Nagar constituency as part of A's city-wide campaign to connect with voters and strengthen support.
Addressing the gathering, Atishi highlighted the A government's achievements and urged voters to support the party once again.
"Arvind Kejriwal has always worked for the common man, unlike other parties. We delivered on promises that others claimed were impossible—such as ensuring round-the-clock electricity even during peak summers," she said.
We will start providing ₹2,100 to every eligible women in the city as soon as Kejriwal becomes the chief minister again after winning the elections, she added.
Last week, the former Delhi chief minister Kejriwal announced the launch of the Mukhya Mantri Mahila Samman Yojna to give a monthly assistance of ₹1,000 to women of the city and promised to raise it to ₹2,100 after the elections.
Emphasising A’s track record, she added, "The people of Tilak Nagar have always supported us in 2013, 2015, and 2020. I am confident that you will once again vote for us in February."
A has re-nominated its three-time sitting MLA from Tilak Nagar, Jarnail Singh, who secured a decisive victory in 2020 by defeating BJP’s Rajiv Babbar by a margin of 28,029 votes.
Meanwhile, the Congress has fielded PS Bawa, while the BJP is yet to announce its contender.
A is seeking a third consecutive full term in Delhi, following its landslide victory in 2020, where it won 62 out of 70 seats. The upcoming elections will serve as a test of the party's governance model.
