Arvind Kejriwal Accuses BJP: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) accused the BJP of attempting to sabotage the scheme and expressed concerns over the party’s fear of losing the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections in February.
BJP’s focus is on ‘Mahila Samman Yojana’ which gives Rs 2,100 to women above 18 and ‘Sanjeeveni’ which gives free health treatment to senior citizens.
At a press conference Kejriwal said two big schemes of his party which were announced before the Delhi Assembly elections have rattled the saffron party.

Under Mahila Samman Yojana AAP will give ₹2,100 to women and free health care to senior citizens above 60 years of age under Sanjeevani Yojana.
Kejriwal said since both the schemes have got huge public support with lakhs of people already registered for it, BJP workers are scared.
"Many BJP leaders told me that forget about winning; BJP's deposit will be forfeited in several areas," Kejriwal said.
He said several BJP leaders called him and expressed fear that if AAP succeeds in implementing these schemes, BJP will lose in many seats.

The former CM also accused BJP of using intimidation tactics after AAP’s registration camps were successful, they sent goons and even police to break the camps.
However, Kejriwal’s focus was primarily on what he believes is a politically motivated investigation launched by the BJP. "Today, they have ordered a fake investigation," Kejriwal stated.“What will be investigated? We made a clear election promise. If we win, we will implement these programmes, and we are doing just that."
Kejriwal also argued if BJP wins, they will stop Mahila Samman Yojana and Sanjeevani Yojana and the free services given by AAP including free bus travel to women, free electricity, water and mohalla clinics.
Leaders and members of the BJP Mahila Morcha staged a protest near AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal's residence here on Thursday, accusing him of "cheating" the women of Delhi with the "Mahila Samman Yojana".
Led by BJP Mahila Morcha president Richa Pandey, the protesters marched from Ashoka Road to Kejriwal's 5, Ferozeshah Road residence but were stopped by police. Some of the protesters climbed atop the police barricades and raised slogans against Kejriwal and the AAP.
