New Delhi, May 12: Delhi BJP President Virendraa Sachdeva and Union Minister General VK Singh flagged off a bike rally in support of Prime Minister Narendra Modi here in National Capital.
The rally organised by the Sikh community was led by party leader Manjinder Singh Sirsa.
This comes nearly two weeks ahead of the Lok Sabha elections in the National Capital and a day after the Delhi Chief Arvind Kejriwal attacked PM Modi, alleging, "He left no stone unturned to crush his party."
All seven Lok Sabha seats in Delhi will vote on May 25. Aam Admi Party and Congress are jointly fighting the elections. As per the arrangement, AAP will be contesting 4 seats and Congress on 3.
"The youth has taken out a bike rally to show support of the Sikh community for PM Narendra Modi (for Delhi Lok Sabha seats). He has made untiring efforts to strengthen our community, be it taking action against the 1984 riots accused, making the Kartarpur Sahib corridor, celebrating Veer Bal Diwas to remember the sacrifice of the four sons of Guru Gobind Singh, or rescuing the Sikh community from Afghanistan...," Sirsa told ANI amid the rally.
He also lashed out at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
"Arvind Kejriwal has been frustrated ever since he came out of jail and that is why he has been lying. He was not in jail in 2014 or 2019...," he said.
Union Minister General VK Singh told ANI, "We have to give a message to the people of Delhi that Modi-led government should come to power for the third time and that the Sikhs are standing in support."
CM Kejriwal will hold a meeting with the Aam Aadmi Party MLAs in the national capital on Sunday. This will be his first meeting with legislatures after he walked out of Tihar Jail. He was granted interim bail on Friday till June 1.
The Supreme Court on Friday gave interim bail to the Aam Admi Party convenor till June 1. However, as per the terms of his bail, the Delhi Chief Minister cannot make any comment about his role in the Delhi liquor scam case. (ANI)
