The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), known for its glitzy campaigns, unveiled a remixed version of its popular 2017 anthem, "BJP Dil Mein, BJP Dilli Mein," sung by Manoj Tiwari.

Delhi chief minister Atishi lashed out at Lieutenant Governor V.K. Saxena and accused him of “bowing to political interests”, amid AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal’s allegations of “poisoning” of Yamuna by the BJP government in Haryana and attempting “genocide” in Delhi.

Huge crowd shows Delhi's mood; people saying excuses, loot and lies of 'AAP-DA' cannot continue, says PM Modi at BJP rally in capital.

Pollution a major issue in Delhi, both Centre and AAP-led Delhi govt failed to control it: Congress leader Jairam Ramesh.

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Wednesday said Delhi is unmatched in terms of pollution and chemical contamination. “Right now, in Delhi, not about ease of doing business but ease of breathing,” he said.

Delhi Minister and AAP candidate from Greater Kailash Assembly seat Saurabh Bharadwaj says, "There are hundreds of industrial units in Sonipat and Panipat in Haryana. Their pollution is poisonous. If you are dumping it in river Yamuna without treating it, then it is a crime. The BJP which is questioning our cleaning programs for Yamuna is the same BJP in Haryana, where the waste of industrial units is dumped in Yamuna..."

Bihar's Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary says, "This time the lotus will bloom in Delhi. The way Kejriwal insulted the people of Purvanchal and called them fake...the people there will take revenge. Also, Kejriwal has made a complete arrangement to provide liquor there, but the public will reject it."

AAP spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar slammed the BJP government, claiming that its policies have burdened the middle class with high taxes while diverting taxpayer money to select industrialists.

“BJP has levied tax on middle-class men over everything, they have broken the middle-class people by making them pay taxes. If you are earning Rs 10 lakhs, you are paying Rs 5 lakhs as taxes. So what should be done with that tax money?” she said.

AIMIM candidate from Mustafabad Tahir Hussain meets locals of his constituency. The Supreme Court had on Tuesday granted six-day custody parole to Tahir Hussain, accused in the February 2020 riots.

AAP National Spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar said, "Instead of becoming a stooge of the BJP, the LG must take care of the people since he holds a constitutional post and responsibility... The level of ammonia in Yamuna has increased 700 times more than the permissible limit and it cannot happen automatically. This has been done. Instead of questioning the Haryana Government, the LG is standing in support of the BJP-led Haryana government. This is shameful..."
