Power Cuts Back In Delhi Soon After BJP Win In Election: Atishi

New Delhi: Linking the exit of AAP from the Delhi government to the return of power cuts, former Delhi Chief Minister Atishi on Thursday alleged that long blackouts have been taking place in many parts of the city since the Assembly election with many voters realising their mistake of electing the BJP.

Addressing the media five days after the AAP lost power in Delhi after 11 years, Atishi said the BJP does not know how to run a government. “From 1993 to 1998, when the BJP was in power the State of Delhi’s power sector was deplorable,” she said.

The Kalkaji legislator said that people have started realising the mistake they have committed by voting the BJP to power, adding that it is the same story in all the states where the BJP is in power.

“Within three days of winning the Delhi election, the BJP has started converting Delhi into Uttar Pradesh where long power cuts of 3-4 hours take place every day,” she said.

The difference between a government of educated people and a government of people with forged degrees has become clear to people within three days, said Atishi.

“Immediately after the exit of the AAP government, it has become clear that the BJP is struggling to govern the city,” she said.
