Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal harshly criticized the Bharatiya Janata Party on Friday, only a few days after becoming victorious in the contentious Chandigarh mayor's race.

During the Aam Aadmi Party's protest over claimed fraud in the mayor elections, Kejriwal remarked, "If BJP can rig Chandigarh mayor elections, imagine what it can do in assembly, Lok Sabha elections."

"We have heard that the BJP manipulates electronic voting machines and steals votes to win elections, but we have never found any proof of this," he said. The results of the Chandigarh mayoral election demonstrate how deeply ingrained their (the BJP's) misdeeds are." "

The AAP convenor said, "We have to save democracy and the nation."

Chandigarh's mayoral election was clouded in controversy when the presiding officer ruled that eight votes cast by AAP and Congress councilors were void; as a consequence, BJP candidate Manoj Sonkar prevailed.

In contrast to Kuldeep Kumar of the AAP's 12 votes, the victorious candidate received 16 votes; eight ballots were deemed ineligible. As allies in the India Bloc, the AAP and Congress had run in the elections. Anil Masih, the presiding officer, was accused by the alliance of manipulating the voting papers as they were being counted.

In the nation's capital, BJP is protesting against Kejriwal in tandem with AAP over the Chandigarh election results.

Leaders and supporters of the Delhi BJP staged a demonstration close to the AAP offices on DDU Marg, charging corruption in the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government.

According to Virendra Sachdeva, the head of the Delhi BJP, "the Kejriwal government has come to be associated with corruption." Every day, the public is made aware of a government swindle.
