New Delhi: Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesperson Tajinder Pal S Bagga on Monday alleged that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is avenging defeat in Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) Elections by cutting electricity and water supply to some areas in the national capital.
Bagga, on microblogging website Twitter, claimed that the constituencies from where the BJP won in the recently-concluded MCD polls are facing electricity and water crunch.
Targeting Aam Aadmi Party's national convenor Kejriwal for the woes of such areas, Bagga, in another tweet, said it was a cheap politics. “The political fight is between you and us. Why are you taking revenge from the public of Delhi?”
Bagga's accusations came amid reports of infighting within the AAP.
Chastened by his party's massive defeat in the civic polls, AAP leader Kejriwal on Saturday accepted that he has made "mistakes" and said the party will introspect and "course correct".
The Bharatiya Janata Party had, however, termed the move as a "new drama of misleading the people".
Here are the tweets posted by the Delhi BJP leader:
दिल्ली में जहाँ जहाँ भाजपा प्रत्याशी जीते है @ArvindKejriwal जी के कहने पर उन इलाकों में बिजली पानी की भारी कटौती की जा रही है ।

The BJP swept all the three municipal bodies of Delhi, returning a tally of 181 of the total 270 seats in MCD poll results. AAP managed 48 and Congress 30 wards.
The AAP's defeat comes more than two years after the Delhi Assembly Elections when it had humbled the BJP, winning 67 of the 70 seats.
