Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday made a sarcastic remark that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was “very angry” with Lt Governor Anil Baijal as he was not creating sufficient obstacles for the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in New Delhi.

“I am told the Prime Minister is very angry with the present LG. The Prime Minister thinks Baijal is not creating sufficient obstacles. Because despite all the obstacles by the LG, the Delhi government is doing phenomenal work for people,” Kejriwal tweeted.

“That is the reason Jung was also removed,” he added, referring to Baijal’s predecessor Najeeb Jung who resigned as Lt Governor of Delhi in December 2016.

Continuing with his sarcastic criticism, Kejriwal said that voting for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will lead to changes in names of cities and railway stations whereas voting for the AAP will help improve children’s future.

Referring to the renaming of the Mughalsarai railway station in Uttar Pradesh to Deen Dayal Upadhyay Junction, he tweeted: “If you vote for the BJP, the name of cities and stations will change. Voting for AAP will change the future of your children.”

भाजपा को वोट दोगे तो शहरों और स्टेशनो के नाम बदलेंगे।

AAP को वोट दोगे तो आपके बच्चों का भविष्य बदलेंगे। https://t.co/giiQC3UZjx

Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia also said that future generations will benefit if the government works on changing the condition of government schools instead of names of cities.

अगर शहर का नाम बदलने की जगह सरकारी स्कूल-कॉलेजों की हालात बदलने पर थोड़ी मेहनत कर लेते तो आने वाली पीढ़ियों का भला हो जाता।
पर नहीं… बच्चे अगर पढ़ लिख गए तो इनके नाम-धाम के झांसे में कैसे फंसेंगे… https://t.co/zTW1Ar0H5F

The UP government had taken the decision to change the name of the extremely busy junction located just 18 km east of Varanasi with an objective to revive the legacy of Bharatiya Jan Sangh president Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyaya, co-founder of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, the forerunner to the BJP.

He was found dead under mysterious circumstances at the station on 11 February, 1968.

Built by the British in the 1860s, the junction connects Delhi to Kolkata. Every major train that runs between the two metros passes through Mughal Sarai, making it the fourth busiest railway junction in India. Located in Chandauli district, Mughal Sarai also has Asia’s largest marshalling yard.
