Providing cheap electricity gets you vote: Kejriwal


New Delhi, Feb 10 (IANS): Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal on Monday expressed happiness that cheap electricity has become part of nationwide political discourse, adding that Delhi has shown that it also gets you votes.

Reacting to a news that says the Maharashtra Government will give subsidy on electricity, just like the AAP government gave in Delhi, Kejriwal said the 21st Century India must have cheap power available round the clock.

"I am glad cheap electricity has become part of national political discourse. Delhi has shown that it is possible to provide free/cheap electricity. Delhi has shown that it also gets you votes. 21st century India must have 24x7 power available to all at cheap rates," Kejriwal tweeted.

His remarks came a day before the results of the Delhi Assembly polls will be announced.

    Next Karnataka elections, we will vote only for the party that promises cheap electricity. Middle class families are unnecessarily burdened by high tarriffs and sudden power cuts.

    The revenue surplus achieved by Sheila Dixith in 15 years is used foolishly by Kejriwal for cheap publicity. Free goodies are things of yesterday. Kejriwal will take Delhi to bankruptcy in next 5 years if continues to implement free/cheap schemes!
