Harsh Vardhan hits out at AAP over statehood

New Delhi: Union minister and BJP’s Chandni Chowk candidate Harsh Vardhan hits out at the ruling AAP’s demand forfull statehood to Delhi and said whether statehood could be given to a chief  minister like Arvind Kejriwal with “dubious and questionable character”.  

Mr Vardhan, who is contesting for the second time from Chandni Chowk Lok Sabha seat, asserted that the national capital was suffering due to the AAP government’s “negative mentality”. “Delhi is suffering because of the negative mentality of its government  and the chief minister in particular. They have hardly done anything  in the last four years. You can see their 70 promises and find there is hardly any promise that has been delivered,” the minister said to a news agency.  

“They have not done anything except wasting their time,” he alleged.
