BJP leaders said on Monday that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had lied when he claimed that the AAP administration had offered 12 lakh employment to young people in the city. They asserted that only 440 jobs had really been granted by the AAP since 2015. The Employment Directorate’s RTI answer, which itself indicated that they do not retain government-wide and state-wide statistics on employment produced, was cited by the BJP officials, according to AAP, who called the charges “ridiculous.” Kejriwal has claimed that his administration has created 12 lakh jobs, but just 440 have been made available to applicants since he took office in 2015, according to BJP MP Manoj Tiwari, who spoke at a news conference in this city. “Kejriwal is the nation’s largest liar, as well as its most dishonest and unscrupulous chief minister. While the assertion that 12 lakh jobs have been created seems wonderful, his government’s own RTI response has shown that it is incorrect “added he.
If the AAP is elected to power in the northeastern state of Assam, Kejriwal has pledged to provide jobs for all young people who are jobless. He also claimed that his party had created jobs for 12 lakh people in Delhi in seven years and 28,000 people in Punjab in a year. According to BJP Legislator Ajay Mahawar, of the 440 jobs created in Delhi between 2015 and 2023 by the AAP administration, 176 were created in 2015, 102 in 2016, 66 in 2017, 68 in 2018, and 28 in 2020. He said, “The Kejriwal administration failed to create a single job in 2019, 2021, 2022, or 2023.”
According to Mahawar, there were 15,76,846 individuals registered overall as of March 14 on the Delhi government’s new employment site, which rose to 15,91,328 the next day. Yet, according to a statement from AAP, Delhi alone has employed almost 13,000 bus marshals. The Delhi administration claimed to have previously provided a thorough breakdown of the 12 lakh employment in the Assembly, including over two lakh in the executive branch.
