The Delhi BJP chief reminded the people of the city about a similar scenario back in the day, ahead of the 2020 legislative assembly elections, when the AAP allegedly raised issues surrounding the CAA, which subsequently led to riots under the leadership of their party’s councilor, after the elections.

Meanwhile, on Tuesday, he had hit-out at the AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal, alleging that as the elections came closer, he suddenly remembered temple priests, while on the other hand, through video clips, Sachdeva reminded of instances where the AAP supremo had allegedly insulted the Swastika sign, mocked deities, and disrespected Lord Krishna’s Sudarshan Chakra.
