Kejriwal was participating in a protest against the inflated bills and the alleged hurdles being placed in its implementation by the senior officials at the AAP headquarters on Deen Dayal Upadhyay Marg in central Delhi. Addressing a gathering, the AAP chief urged the people not to pay the "wrong bills", burn them in front of members of the Bharatiya Janata Party.
"All Lok Sabha MPs in Delhi are from the BJP. They do not raise the voice of people of Delhi in Parliament. Not one of them raises your issues. If seven MPs are from INDIA alliance, they will become a security shield around Delhi. Give me seven seats and no lieutenant governor will be able to act this way. If you give me seven seats in Delhi, I assure you that the bills (inflated) will become zero within 15 days of the Lok Sabha elections.....There is no need to pay these wrong bills. If any BJP member lives near you, ring the bell of his house and burn and throw these bills in front of them."
The AAP and Congress -both members of the opposition grouping, INDIA -- have decided to contest four and three seats each respectively in the upcoming general elections.
He added that people of Delhi consider him to be member of their family but go on vote for the BJP in Lok Sabha election and it should change in these elections.
