As Delhi began voting at 8 am on Saturday to elect a new government, Home Minister Amit Shah appealed to the people of Delhi to vote to free Delhi from lies and vote-bank politics. The term of the current 70-seat Assembly, where AAP holds an absolute majority, will expire on February 22. The results of the elections will be declared on February 11.
Taking to his Twitter, the former BJP chief said only a government with far-sighted thinking and strong intentions can make Delhi the best capital of the world by giving Delhi clean air, clean drinking water, and household to every poor.
दिल्ली को स्वच्छ हवा, स्वच्छ पीने का पानी और हर गरीब को अपना घर देकर इसे विश्व की सबसे अच्छी राजधानी सिर्फ एक दूरदर्शी सोच व मजबूत इरादों वाली सरकार ही बना सकती है।

मैं दिल्ली की जनता से अपील करता हूँ कि झूठ और वोटबैंक की राजनीति से दिल्ली को मुक्त करने के लिए मतदान अवश्य करें।
Amit Shah covered 60 constituencies that comprised 'nukkad sabhas', road shows, workers meet. BJP is eyeing a comeback in the national capital after 21 years.
