Sushma Swaraj pulls out all stops at trader hub

Written By Unknown on Sabtu, 30 November 2013 | 22.10

NEW DELHI: Campaigning at seven locations in south and east Delhi, BJP leader Sushma Swaraj's first stop or, as she put it borrowing from the traders' lexicon, Bohni, was at Jungpura. On Friday, Swaraj met a crowd of supporters at a Central Road crossing, part of Bhogal market. The market is rich in kitchen appliances and, apparently, Congress voters — the party has won municipal, assembly and Lok Sabha seats from this constituency in all elections over the last two decades.

Swaraj repeated promises she's made over the previous two days — 25 essential medicines (BJP's chief ministerial candidate, Harsh Vardhan, has drawn up the list) to be provided free to every citizen "from birth till death"; number of subsidized LPG cylinders will be increased from nine to 12; unauthorized colonies will be regularized; youths will get smart cards for travel that won't be specific to any particular mode of public transport and steps for women safety. She also promised an increase in pension for the aged, widows and the disabled.

"Considering Delhi has two governments —state and Centre — the city should have been a beautiful one. But what's happening is quite the opposite. If central government increases the price of petrol, fuel, Delhi government increases prices of electricity and water," she said. She was campaigning for BJP candidate Pankaj Jain.

Projected reductions in cost of electricity are beginning to resemble price wars between low-cost airlines. Aam Aadmi Party promised a 50% drop; BJP's promised 30%; on Thursday, Jain had told his constituents, "It could also be 50%." Swaraj finished with a joke on Jain's substantial girth — he is, to be fair, portly — saying, "Jitna mota hai, utna mota iska kaam hai".
