What vision do you have to get East Delhi ticket: AAP's Atishi asks Gambhir

The cricketer-turned-politician had earlier said Atishi did not have a "vision" and therefore, was alleging him of having his name registered in two constituencies' electoral roll from Rajender Nagar and Karolbagh constituencies.

Atishi had filed a criminal complaint on Thursday against Gautam Gambhir over possession of two voter IDs in two separate constituencies of Delhi.

Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) East Delhi candidate Atishi Marlena has asked her Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) rival Gautam Gambhir about the amount of work he has done to deserve a party ticket from the East Delhi Lok Sabha constituency.

The cricketer-turned-politician had earlier said Atishi did not have a "vision" and therefore, was alleging him of having his name registered in two constituencies' electoral roll from Rajender Nagar and Karolbagh constituencies.

In a series of tweets, Atishi slammed Gambhir, and asked him to share his vision for the constituency.

"In 4.5 years, AAP government built 2 new schools of excellence, 2 talent schools, 2 university campus, 25 mohalla clinics in East Delhi and 32 are under construction. Hundreds of new jobs. Tell your vision too," she said, in a tweet.

"I told what we did in 5 years. Now it's your turn, let me tell you that: 1. What did your party MP @MaheishGirri do for East Delhi in 5 years? What did you do for East Delhi in five years which BJP gave you the ticket from here, "she asked.

She said no voter would vote for Gambhir as he would be disqualified soon.

"It is possible @GautamGambhir that I do not have vision, but at least, every vote I get will not be in vain! No voter in East Delhi will vote for you, because your nomination will get cancelled. So by voting for a disqualified candidate, no votes will be wasted," she said.

She also claimed that Gambhir was not denying the charge of possessing two voter IDs.

"If my charge is wrong then @GautamGambhir, deny that charge, present the facts in order to prove the wrong! Why are you avoiding the question," she said.

Atishi had filed a criminal complaint on Thursday against Gautam Gambhir over possession of two voter IDs in two separate constituencies of Delhi.

She also complained in the Election Commission for discrepancies in nomination papers but Gambhir's nomination was accepted by the Election Commission.

Atishi Marlena, Gautam Gambhir and Congress' Arvinder Singh Lovely are locked in a three-way election for East Delhi constituency.

Delhi goes to poll in sixth phase of the Lok Sabha election on May 12 and the results would be declared on May 23.
