Ahead of upcoming Delhi Assembly Election 2025, The Bharatiya Janta Party and AAP have launched aggressive poster campaigns against each other to sway public sentiment on social media. The BJP alleged that AAP is resorting to voter fraud in a bid to retain power in the capital region.
The Saffron party shared a poster of AAP Chief Arvind Kejriwal, alleging that multiple fraudulent voter entries, ranging from ages 40 to 80, were registered at a single address without the homeowner's knowledge. BJP described this as "a new game by Kejriwal to rig votes."

Former Delhi CM Kejriwal also accused the BJP of hypocrisy, claiming that while the party opposes honorariums for religious leaders, it simultaneously pushes for temple demolitions yesterday.
In a post on X( formerly twitter) Arvind Kejriwal wrote "People are angry,". Delhi Chief Minister Atishi expanded on these claims, stating that the BJP-led central government had empowered the Lieutenant Governor (LG) to order temple demolitions without consulting the elected Delhi government AAP.
एक तरफ़ पुजारियों और ग्रंथियों को सम्मान राशि दिए जाने का बीजेपी पुरज़ोर विरोध कर रही है और दूसरी ओर मंदिरों को तोड़ने की तैयारी कर रही है। लोग इसे लेकर बेहद नाराज़ हैं। https://t.co/ylc6ZQbiTU

Atishi further alleged that on November 22, the Religious Committee, which now reports directly to the Lt Governor, approved the demolition of temples in areas such as West Patel Nagar, Dilshad Garden, and Sultanpuri, along with a Buddhist temple in Sundar Nagari.
"The BJP's dual face is clear. They claim to protect Hinduism but work to destroy temples," Atishi remarked.

The BJP responded with a list of unmet promises by the AAP government. BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi accused Kejriwal of failing to address critical issues like clean water, women's safety, slum rehabilitation, pollution, and the cleaning of the Yamuna River.
"Instead of solving these problems, Kejriwal's government has done nothing," Trivedi added. He also claimed that while the BJP, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has brought credibility to politics, AAP has done the opposite.
