New Delhi: At a time when a number of BJP leaders are making ground review over the party’s dismal performance in the Delhi Assembly Election 2020, party’s Lok Sabha MP from East Delhi Gautam Gambhir on Thursday held himself and other MPs responsible for the party’s performance in the polls.

Talking about AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal’s massive win, he said that the objective of his party is to make the national capital capable and not helpless. Assessing the [performance, he said that the party probably could not convince voters with its agenda.
Talking about news reports about him becoming the next Delhi BJP chief, he said that the question is hypothetical and does not carry significance. However, he added that if the offer comes to him, he will consider it. He added further that the party high command will decide the matter.
However, he slammed the AAP chief for winning the Delhi polls by giving out freebies to voters. He said that the Delhi government will continue to give what is being given free to woo voters for vote bank politics.
