Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday questioned why people troubled by inflation should not get free education and treatment, and calling such things free “revdi” should not insult the common man. Kejriwal tweeted a media report in which the Prime Minister Narendra Modi The political culture of “revdi” or free gifts was criticized.
“People are very worried about the price rise. Why should they not get free education, treatment, medicine and electricity? How many facilities do politicians get for free? Banks waived loans of so many rich people. Repeatedly free rewari, don’t insult the common man,” the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief said in a tweet in Hindi.
Modi had on Saturday criticized the freebie culture in his address after organizing a “Griha Pravesh” function of 4.51 lakh beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) in Madhya Pradesh’s Satna district.
“Every taxpayer must be thinking that as I celebrate Diwali, the poor brothers of Madhya Pradesh are also rejoicing during the festival of lights. He is getting a permanent home. His daughter’s life will improve. But when this taxpayer sees that the money collected from him is being spent on the distribution of Revdi, he feels pain,” the Prime Minister had said.
