In a video message posted on Twitter, the firebrand Hindutva leader accused Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and the Congress of “abetting urban naxalism” in the national capital and the rest of the country.
The Delhi polls, which are slated for February 8, are not merely about electing a new assembly but about “changing” the country’s direction, the BJP leader said, asking people to vote for the nation and to give a befitting reply to “tukde tukde gang”.
“Otherwise you remember when a handful of Mughals had attacked us during the Aryavarta’s time. We became slaves for years due to some lazy, greedy and treacherous people. If you want to escape this slavery, then you rise above castes and personalities and look at Delhi through the vision of Narendra Modi and the nation.”
