Kejriwal accuses BJP-led Centre of failing to ensure women’s safety

PTI Imphal: AAP supremo and former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday accused the BJP-led Centre of failing in its responsibility to ensure women’s safety and maintain law and order in the national capital. Addressing a ‘Mahila Adalat’ event at Thyagaraj Stadium, Kejriwal claimed that unlike the BJP which does not treat women’s safety as a priority, his government has fulfilled all its promises.

“Ten years ago, you gave me the responsibility to improve schools, hospitals, and water supply in Delhi, and I have done my work. But you gave the responsibility of security to BJP and Amit Shah, who has failed,” Kejriwal said. “Delhi’s women are not a vote bank for me; I see them as my sisters and mothers. I have done everything within my power to ensure their safety. Before AAP came to power, there were no CCTV cameras in the city. We installed CCTV cameras and appointed bus marshals to enhance people’s security,” Kejriwal added.
