Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal addressed several student leaders, who won elections to various posts in Delhi University colleges as independent candidates, during their induction into the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) here on Saturday. At the AAP’s party headquarters here, the national convener was told by student leaders that money and nepotism were dominating student politics. Mr. Kejriwal said that AAP was the only party where “anyone can contest and win elections”.
“Politics in the country will change only when there is politics without means. If politicians contest elections with someone’s money, then their accountability will also be limited to them.
Today, politics is happening like this in the country, which we changed in Delhi. I still have nothing, that is why I am able to think of, and for, the public,” Mr. Kejriwal said.“The foundation of the country’s development is being laid in Delhi. There were talks about closing government schools in the country and privatizing them. Now we have changed this perception in Delhi. Today, government schools are better compared to private ones. Political changes are taking place in Delhi. Politics is taking place without money,” Mr. Kejriwal said.
