AAP’s List of Dishonest People: Ahead of the highly anticipated Delhi Assembly elections, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has ramped up its campaign with bold and provocative posters targeting its main rivals—Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). In a strategic move, AAP has included Congress MP Rahul Gandhi for the first time in its list of political targets, signaling an intense escalation in the party’s election rhetoric. The posters, which have created quite a stir, feature prominent national leaders alongside a tagline aimed at questioning the honesty of political adversaries.
AAP’s List of Dishonest People
The latest AAP posters feature a striking visual with the message, “Kejriwal’s honesty will outweigh all the dishonest people.” Along with photos of Delhi BJP leaders, the posters prominently display images of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, and, notably, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. The inclusion of Gandhi in the poster is a clear indication that AAP is going all-out in its efforts to frame the upcoming election as a battle of integrity versus dishonesty.
The poster’s tagline, which suggests that Kejriwal’s honesty surpasses those of his opponents, reflects AAP’s strategy of presenting itself as the alternative to the traditional, established parties. The inclusion of Rahul Gandhi, who has been an outspoken critic of Kejriwal, especially in the run-up to the elections, has taken the political rivalry to new heights.
Rahul Gandhi’s Criticism of Kejriwal
The new AAP posters come after Rahul Gandhi made pointed remarks about Kejriwal’s leadership. At a rally, Gandhi expressed that Delhi deserved the “real development model” offered by former Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit, not the “false propaganda and PR model” promoted by Modi and Kejriwal. Gandhi’s comments have sharply criticized Kejriwal’s governance, questioning his ability to match the achievements of Sheila Dikshit, who served as Delhi’s Chief Minister for 15 years.
During another rally, Gandhi accused Kejriwal of following a “propaganda and false promises” strategy, similar to that of Prime Minister Modi. He also highlighted the growing problems in the city, such as pollution, inflation, and corruption, which he claims Kejriwal has failed to address. Gandhi further alleged that both Modi and Kejriwal were responsible for marginalizing vulnerable groups, such as Dalits and tribals, preventing them from receiving their rightful share of development.
Congress Leaders Join the Attack
The attack on Kejriwal is not limited to Rahul Gandhi alone. Congress leader Ajay Maken, who has previously accused Kejriwal of being “anti-national,” and Sandeep Dikshit, the son of the late Sheila Dikshit, who is contesting against Kejriwal in the New Delhi constituency, also appear in the AAP posters. Maken and Dikshit’s inclusion further intensifies the competition between Congress and AAP, particularly in the context of the Delhi elections.
Maken has been a vocal critic of Kejriwal’s leadership in the capital, accusing him of failing to live up to his promises. Similarly, Sandeep Dikshit has not held back in challenging Kejriwal’s governance, highlighting the work done by his mother, Sheila Dikshit, during her tenure as Chief Minister.
BJP Strikes Back with Its Own Posters
In response, the BJP has also rolled out a new set of posters, renewing its criticism of the AAP government. One such poster uses the term “aapda,” meaning disaster, to accuse the AAP of misgovernance. The BJP’s poster campaign has taken a more combative approach, calling the AAP a “gang of big thugs full of goons and criminals.” This poster aims to rally support for the party by portraying AAP as a corrupt and incompetent force.
BJP’s campaign in Delhi, as in other states, focuses on portraying AAP’s leadership as ineffective while accusing Kejriwal of failing to deliver on promises made to the people of Delhi. The BJP’s slogan “On 5th February, people of Delhi will teach a lesson to AAP-da gang” aims to mobilize voters and build a narrative that the ruling party in Delhi has failed the people.
A Triangular Contest
The Delhi Assembly elections on February 5 are shaping up to be a highly competitive and triangular contest between AAP, Congress, and BJP. Despite being part of the INDIA opposition alliance, AAP and Congress are contesting the elections separately, with each party vying for the support of Delhi’s electorate. AAP leaders have repeatedly dismissed Congress as “irrelevant” in the city’s political landscape, accusing the party of colluding with the BJP to undermine Kejriwal’s governance.
The stakes are high for Arvind Kejriwal’s AAP, which aims to frame the upcoming election as a battle between its “honest governance” and the perceived failures of both the BJP and Congress. Kejriwal’s party continues to highlight the achievements of its governance in Delhi, including the focus on education, healthcare, and utilities, contrasting this with the alleged missteps of the other parties.
AAP’s Strategy for the Polls
AAP’s aggressive poster campaign, featuring top political leaders from Congress and BJP, is part of a larger strategy to win the trust of voters by framing the election as a choice between clean governance and corruption. By targeting Rahul Gandhi, Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, and other BJP leaders, AAP is positioning itself as the only party that can bring honest leadership to Delhi.
Kejriwal’s party has also sought to connect with voters through its promises of improved infrastructure, better education, and more accessible healthcare. The party is hoping to capitalize on its governance model in Delhi, which has won praise for its focus on public services, as it tries to secure another term in power.

Conclusion
With just days to go before the Delhi Assembly elections, the political landscape is heating up as AAP, Congress, and BJP engage in a fierce battle for control of the capital. AAP’s provocative posters targeting Congress and BJP, along with its focus on Kejriwal’s honesty, are set to dominate the final phase of the campaign. As the election approaches, all eyes will be on Delhi to see if Kejriwal can once again secure the support of voters, or if his rivals will succeed in making significant inroads.
The outcome of this election will have major implications for Delhi’s future governance and could set the tone for the broader political dynamics across India in the years to come.
