New Delhi [India]: As the rivalry between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) intensifies ahead of the Delhi Assembly election, AAP announced plans for a significant revelation in a press conference.
Taking to X, AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal stated, “Today at 11 o’clock Sanjay Singh and Saurabh Bhardwaj will make a big disclosure against the ‘Galli galoch party’ in a press conference. Do watch it.”
आज 11 बजे संजय सिंह और सौरभ भारद्वाज प्रेस कांफ्रेंस में गाली गलौज पार्टी के ख़िलाफ़ एक बहुत बड़ा खुलासा करेंगे। ज़रूर देखियेगा।

Meanwhile, an AAP delegation led by Kejriwal met with the Election Commission on Thursday to raise concerns about alleged voter irregularities in the New Delhi Legislative Assembly.
The party alleged large-scale voter fraud, highlighting an unusual surge in voter registrations and deletions. Kejriwal claimed that 5,500 votes were registered in just 22 days and stated that out of 89 individuals who reportedly applied for deletions, 18 denied making such requests.
On Thursday, AAP leader Atishi criticized the BJP, accusing it of lacking an agenda for the upcoming elections other than attacking Arvind Kejriwal. Speaking at the inauguration of the AAP election office in Govindpuri, she said, “This ‘galli-galoch’ party doesn’t have any agenda, narrative, or CM face for Delhi. They have only one work: to hurl abuses at Arvind Kejriwal. I think it will be very easy for the people of Delhi to make a decision.”
The Delhi Assembly polls are scheduled to take place in a single phase on February 5, with counting of votes on February 8. The deadline for filing nominations is January 17, and scrutiny of nominations will occur on January 18. Candidates can withdraw their nominations until January 20.
In previous elections, the AAP secured a landslide victory in 2020, winning 62 out of 70 seats, while the BJP managed to secure eight seats. The Congress, which once ruled Delhi for 15 consecutive years, has not won a single seat in the past two assembly elections.
