Ahead of the Assembly elections in Haryana, AAP National Convenor and former Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal has accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of orchestrating false arrests of AAP leaders. While addressing an election rally in the poll-bound state on Wednesday, Kejriwal announced his five guarantees for Haryana residents: free electricity, free medical services, excellent government schools, Rs 1000 for women above 18, and youth employment.

"Prime Minister thought that Kejriwal is doing a lot of work. He needs to be stopped. They arrested all our party leaders. They wanted to attack my honesty. They made false accusations, called me a 'Bhrashtachari' and a 'Chor'... I am roaming around in Delhi, people are saying that I can be anything but a 'Chor.' I resigned and said that the people of Delhi will decide if I am honest or not," stated Kejriwal in Meham constituency. "I am giving you five guarantees. First, we will make electricity free... Pending electricity bills would be waived. Second, we will make hospitals and Mohalla clinics and give free medical services... Third, we will make excellent government schools for your children... Fourth, all women above 18 years of age would be given Rs. 1000 every month. Fifth, we will give employment to the youth. Whoever will form the government, it will not be without Kejriwal's support," he added.

Meanwhile, Kejriwal penned a letter urging RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat to oversee BJP's activities. In the letter dated Wednesday, Kejriwal posed five questions to Bhagwat and pressed him to hold BJP accountable. "BJP was born from the womb of RSS, it is the responsibility of RSS to ensure that BJP does not go astray, did you ever stop Modi ji from doing wrong things?" he questioned.

He also criticized the BJP for allegedly aligning with 'corrupt' leaders and incorporating them into the party. Haryana is set to go to the polls on October 5, with results for both Haryana and JK to be announced on October 8. (ANI)
