AAP Promises Free Electricity and Water for Renters in Delhi Ahead of 2025 Assembly Election

Arvind Kejriwal announces new welfare scheme targeting tenants, as AAP and BJP outline competing promises for the February 5 election.

Arvind Kejriwal pledged to extend AAP's free electricity and water schemes to renters if the party secures a third term in the Delhi Assembly election.
Kejriwal highlighted that many renters, particularly from the Purvanchali community, feel excluded from existing subsidy benefits despite using public services like schools and clinics.
AAP's manifesto also includes free bus rides for male students, ₹2,100 monthly honorarium for women, and enhanced healthcare for senior citizens.
The BJP's manifesto, released on January 17, focuses on women-centric benefits, including ₹2,500 monthly aid and increased pensions for senior citizens, alongside other welfare measures.
Voting for all 70 Delhi Assembly seats is scheduled for February 5, with results to be announced on February 8 in a three-way contest involving AAP, BJP, and Congress.
