Both bjp and congress are raising questions on the announcement of giving honorarium of Rs 18,000 per month to the priests of temples and granthis of Gurudwara in Delhi. Both the parties are calling the announcement of aam aadmi party convenor arvind kejriwal a part of misleading politics. After bjp, now congress has attacked Arvind Kejriwal. congress leader Alka Lamba said that when the announcement of giving Rs 18,000 to the Imam of the mosque was made, then why was Rs 18,000 not announced to be given to the priests and granthis?
Alka Lamba said that arvind kejriwal announced the Pujari-Granthi Samman Yojana sensing the displeasure of the priests and granthis. She said that aam aadmi party has been in power in delhi for the last 10 years. Why was the Pujari-Granthi Samman Yojana announced seeing the assembly elections coming near?
The congress leader said that the announcement of giving 18 thousand rupees honorarium to priests and granthis is nothing more than an election slogan. He claimed that neither the Imam of the mosque is getting 18 thousand rupees nor will the priests and granthis get it in future.
What did the congress say on the announcement of Pujari-Granthi Samman Yojana?
Earlier, bjp had also raised questions on the announcement of Pujari-Granthi Samman Yojana by Kejriwal. bjp said that even the priests and granthis know that arvind kejriwal is making the announcement to mislead.
It is worth noting that arvind kejriwal had announced Pujari-Granthi Samman Yojana 2 days ago. A few years before this, arvind kejriwal had also announced to give Rs 18,000 to the Imams of the mosque. There is a political uproar over the Pujari-Granthi Samman Yojana to attract voters in the delhi assembly elections. By announcing the scheme, AAP convener arvind kejriwal is on the target of bjp and Congress.
