BJP's Delhi Assembly poll office inaugurated; party gives "will bring change" slogan
New Delhi, Dec 7: The election office of the BJP for the upcoming Delhi Assembly polls was inaugurated at the Pant Marg headquarters of the party's state unit on Saturday in the presence of its senior leaders.
Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva performed a 'havan' along with his wife with the party's state election in-charge Baijayant Panda, election coordination committee chairman and Union minister Harsh Malhotra, MPs, Ramvir Singh Bidhuri, Manoj Tiwari, Kamaljeet Sehrawat, Bansuri Swaraj, Yogendra Chandolia, Praveen Khandelwal and others in attendance.
Elections for the 70-member Delhi Assembly are due to be held in February next year. The BJP, out of power in Delhi since 1998, is making all-out efforts to end the dominance of the Aam Aadmi Party led by Arvind Kejriwal.
Panda and other leaders also flagged off a fleet of vans that will tour across Delhi to gather feedback from the public for the party manifesto for the Assembly polls.
The slogan 'Ab Nahi Sahenge, Badal Kar Rahenge' (will not tolerate now, will bring change) as a theme for the feedback exercise for the manifesto, was given by Panda on the occasion.
BJP leaders, speaking on the occasion, said the people of Delhi have had enough and now they want to remove AAP from power to get relief from dirty water supply, damaged roads, expensive electricity and high levels of pollution.
In a caustic comment over the BJP's slogan, AAP supremo Kejriwal claimed the "will bring change" motto of the opposition party reflected that it intends to stop all the works done by his party's government in Delhi.
In a post on X, he said "They have today officially announced that they will change everything. It means, the 24-hour electricity supply will stop and there will be long power cuts with bills of thousands of rupees, free bus travel for women will end, all schools will be ruined, Mohalla Clinics will be shut and free medicines and treatment will stop."
He asked people to vote carefully since the BJP has made its intentions clear now.
आज बीजेपी ने नारा दिया है - बदल के रहेंगे।

जिसका डर था, वही हुआ। मैंने पहले ही कहा था कि अगर इनको वोट दे दिया तो दिल्ली की जनता के साथ मिलकर दस साल में आम आदमी पार्टी की सरकार ने जो काम किया है, वो सब काम ये लोग बंद कर देंगे।

Dakshina Kannada: Two girls drown while bathing near Kolyadakatta dam in Kadaba
Mangaluru: Two girl students drowned while bathing near the Kolyadakatta dam area of the Gundya river on Friday evening here in the Kadaba Taluk of the district.
The deceased have been identified as Arpita (15) and Sunita (21), both residents of Vimalagiri in Kutrupadi village.
According to reports, five girl students had visited the river along with their friends as it was a holiday. While bathing in the river, the two students reportedly entered a deeper portion of the water without realising the depth and began drowning.
Those accompanying them tried to rescue the duo, but were unsuccessful, leading to the tragedy.
After receiving information about the incident, Kadaba Police Station personnel visited the spot and conducted an inspection. The bodies were later recovered with the help of local residents.
