New Delhi: As the Delhi Assembly elections approach, the BJP and AAP have intensified their campaigns with a war of words and posters, targeting each other on contentious issues.

The BJP released a poster featuring AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal, alleging that multiple fraudulent voter entries, aged between 40 and 80, were registered at a single address without the knowledge of the homeowner. The BJP accused Kejriwal of attempting to rig votes, describing it as "a new game to manipulate elections."

AAP countered with a video poster portraying Kejriwal as the "GOAT" (Greatest of All Time).

Kejriwal, in a post on X, accused the BJP of hypocrisy, highlighting contradictions in its stance on honorariums for religious leaders while allegedly backing temple demolitions.

Delhi Chief Minister Atishi supported these claims, alleging that the BJP-led central government empowered the Lieutenant Governor to approve temple demolitions without consulting the Delhi government. She cited instances from West Patel Nagar, Dilshad Garden, Sultanpuri, and a Buddhist temple in Sundar Nagari, attributing the decisions to the Religious Committee now reporting directly to the Lt Governor.

"The BJP's dual approach is evident. They claim to protect Hinduism but act against temples," Atishi stated during a press conference.

In response, BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi criticised the AAP government for its alleged failure to address critical issues like clean water, women’s safety, slum rehabilitation, pollution, and cleaning the Yamuna River. Trivedi claimed that the BJP, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, had enhanced political credibility, while AAP had damaged it.

BJP leader MP Praveen Khandelwal dismissed AAP's recent announcements, including honorariums for priests and granthis, as mere electoral stunts. He alleged that Delhi's treasury was empty, accusing Kejriwal of making unfeasible promises for political gain.

Saharsa (PTI): More than 150 children were taken ill after allegedly consuming food that was part of the mid-day meal in a school in Bihar’s Saharsa district, a senior official said on Thursday.

The incident occurred at a middle school in Baluaha village of the district.

The official said that 115 children were undergoing treatment at the Sadar Hospital, while around 50 students were admitted to Mahishi Public Health Centre.

“We received information that several children fell ill after consuming the mid-day meal in Baluaha. The children were initially treated at the primary health centre, but later, many were referred to the Sadar Hospital,” Saharsa District Magistrate Deepesh Kumar told reporters.

“According to doctors, the health condition of the children has improved, but they will be kept under observation for some time. There is no need to panic. Some kids are having mild fever. They are being treated accordingly,” Kumar said.

Meanwhile, family members of some children claimed that a snake was found in the container in which cooked pulses was stored at the school.

Of the 545 students present in the school, 200 had already eaten their meals by the time the snake was spotted, and later complained of stomach ache and vomiting, they said.

Regarding the claims, the DM said food samples have been collected from the school.

“We will be able to comment on this only after the results of the tested samples arrive,” he said.
