Delhi Elections: Parvesh Verma says Talkatora Stadium to be renamed, predicts massive BJP victory

Delhi Elections: Parvesh Verma says Talkatora Stadium to be renamed, predicts massive BJP victory

BJP's Parvesh Verma, a candidate from the New Delhi Assembly constituency, announced on Monday that Talkatora Stadium will be renamed in honor of Bhagwan Maharshi Valmiki.

During a press conference, Verma shared, "In the first NDMC council meeting after February 8, we will bring a proposal to rename Talkatora Stadium as Bhagwan Maharshi Valmiki Stadium. This will be a tribute to the great saint and philosopher whose teachings continue to inspire generations."

Expressing confidence in his victory, Verma confidently predicted a major defeat for AAP's Arvind Kejriwal, stating, "We will win by a margin of more than 20,000 votes. It could even go up to 25,000-26,000. Arvind Kejriwal will lose his deposit here and will come third."

The BJP's campaign in the New Delhi constituency has been emphasizing governance, transparency, and public welfare. Verma's statement reflects the party’s strong position and assurance of securing a decisive win in the constituency.

In contrast, AAP's National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal accused the BJP of attempting to manipulate the election process. He claimed that the BJP would misuse the Delhi Police and deceive voters by pretending to be Election Commission personnel.

"Aam Aadmi Party is heading to a historic victory and BJP is heading towards its worst defeat," Kejriwal declared. "BJP will use Delhi Police to commit hooliganism. BJP workers will go to poor people and tell them that they are from the Election Commission and will put ink on their finger and tell them to take Rs 3,000 and cast their vote."

Kejriwal further accused BJP of misleading people in slum areas, alleging, "BJP people are going to slums and saying that people from the Election Commission are coming to get your vote cast on the night before the elections. All of them are cheating and lying. The Election Commission does not come to your home to conduct voting."

Meanwhile, AAP’s Manish Sisodia expressed confidence in the public’s rejection of BJP's tactics, stating, "The public will answer BJP's hooliganism with their votes. Baba Saheb made the people (Public) the masters by creating a democratic system. Now BJP is threatening the people. They are threatening the workers and leaders of Aam Aadmi Party. Let me tell the BJP people, we are the disciples of Baba Saheb and Bhagat Singh ji, we are not going to be scared of your hooliganism. The public has made up its mind to teach you a lesson and make Kejriwal the Chief Minister again."

As the campaigning period concludes on Monday, the Delhi Assembly elections are set for February 5, with results to be declared on February 8.
