Arvind Kejriwal’s Promises for Uttarakhand elections 2022
Meanwhile, Arvind Kejriwal, the Delhi Chief Minister and national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), spoke at an election rally in Kashipur, Uttarakhand, on Tuesday, 14 December 2021. If AAP wins power in Uttarakhand, he vowed to provide free electricity and waive all unpaid residential power bills, same as he did in other state campaigns. In his speech, he outlined three projects that the AAP will complete if the people elect them to power. He claimed that if his party wins power in Uttarakhand, he will apply the same model that he used in Delhi, where his government provides 200 units of free electricity to every home.
The party’s second pledge was that it will be loud about job prospects for young people. He stated that he supplied 10 lakh jobs to people in need in Delhi and that he will do the same in Uttarakhand. He also offered a 5,000-rupee unemployment benefit. Kejriwal further stated that if his party wins power in the state, women aged 18 and above will receive Rs 1,000 per month.
Uttarakhand’s budget, according to the AAP chairman, is Rs 55,000 crore, with 20% of that going to corruption. According to the Delhi CM, only 3.5 thousand crores are required to deliver Rs. 1,000 to women in the state. If AAP is elected, the party’s leader has stated that a free pilgrimage plan similar to that in Delhi will be implemented. In his earlier speech in Haridwar, Kejriwal stated that Hindus will be brought to Ayodhya, Muslims to Ajmer Sharif, and Sikhs to Kartarpur Sahib under the proposal.
