(MENAFN- Live Mint) Delhi elections 2025: Amid the high-octane campaigning for the Delhi assembly elections 2025, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu on February 3 accused the Arvind Kejriwal government of“failing” the national capital, news agency PTI reported.
Batting for ally Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Naidu said the Aam Admi Party (AAP ) model has failed, terming it as“half-engine sarkar”, adding that people should opt for a party that brings inclusive growth.

Addressing a press conference in the national capital, Andhra CM Naidu said that people are worried about staying in Delhi because of the“weather and political pollution”, adding that“there has been no development in Delhi”.
“Politicians have to always think about today, tomorrow and the future. A government with good public policy can transform society. Delhi has a half-engine sarkar and needs a double-engine sarkar to achieve development,” he added. Double-engine sarkar is a phrase popularised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi while campaigning for his party during the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Continuing to slam the AAp government, Naidu said,“Performance and better living standards are becoming relevant and not ideology. Poor people in Delhi have to think if they want to live permanently in slums.”
