Jaipur, Mar 27 (PTI) Amid the AAP seeking to expand its base in Rajasthan, a state minister on Sunday said the Congress will have a direct fight with the BJP here, hinting that the Arvind Kejriwal-led party poses no threat to the ruling party.
Rajasthan’s Food and Civil Supplies Minister Pratap Singh Khachariyaws sought to belittle the Aam Admi Party’s electoral efforts saying it only copies the Congress.
“The Rajasthan government has already been running several welfare schemes such as free medicine scheme, Chiranjeevi health insurance scheme and unemployment allowance to youths, among others.
“The AAP is doing nothing but copying the Congress government of Rajasthan,” Khachariyaws told reporters here.
“In the Rajasthan assembly elections next year, there will be a direct fight between the Congress and the BJP,” he said.
“People are troubled by high inflation, rise in fuel prices and unemployment, among other issues,” he added.
Buoyed by its massive victory in the Punjab assembly elections recently, the AAP has said it would launch a membership drive in Rajasthan to increase its electoral base in the state. PTI SDA KVK KVK RAX RAX
