Addressing the meeting, Ms Dikshit appealed to the ex-MLAs, Municipal Councillors, heads of various Cells and others to work unitedly in the coming Lok Sabha elections to ensure the victory of the Congress candidates in all the seven Parliamentary seats in Delhi.
She said that the Congress party was going through a difficult phase and therefore all the Congress workers should work hard for the victory of the Congress party in the Lok Sabha elections.
'The Congress workers would have to battle on two fronts, as there is the communal BJP on the one side which has been disturbing the peaceful life of the people, and on the other side there is Aam Aadmi Party, which has been misleading the people,' she said.
"During the 15-year rule of the Congress Government, Delhi witnessed unprecedented developments to change the face of the National Capital to make it one of the best in the world,' she said.
She said that the Arvind Kejriwal Government has been taking credit for the work done by the Congress Government in Delhi without laying a single brick for development during its four year rule in Delhi.
Instead, she said, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Government has been squandering the tax payers’ money for self publicity by propagating lies and confusion through its newspaper advertisements.
Ms Dikshit said that during the Congress rule in Delhi, money from the Government exchequer was never misused.
She asked the Congress workers to make door-to-door visits to tell the people about the achievements of the Congress Government and the stark difference between the Congress party and the AAP.
Ms Sheila Dikshit said the AAP Government has not constructed any new hospital, no new flyovers nor any new under pass in the last four years.
She said that the people of Delhi have seen through the real face of the AAP and in the coming Lok Sabha elections, they will teach the AAP an unforgettable lesson.
