New Delhi: It's common knowledge that Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal is a vocal critic of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and considers him to be his biggest arch rival. It’s a different matter though that he barely finds a mention in the Prime Minister's speeches.
Most of the problems faced by the Delhi government mysteriously find its way back to Prime Minister. Not just the Delhi CM, even his party colleagues relish targetting Modi regularly.
But looks like CM Kejriwal is emulating our Prime Minister. For, the AAP leader is set to launch 'Talk to AK' which many would consider is a straight takeaway from PM Modi's Mann Ki Baat. However, AAP claims that it's different. The party says unlike Modi's monologue, the programme will be interactive.
Through the show, the AAP intends to inform people of its work as it eyes Goa, Punjab and other election-bound states besides Delhi.
The AAP has invited people to log on to wwww.talktoak.com and call on a number given there to ask questions to the Delhi CM.
Kejriwal will take the opportunity to apprise people of the Aam Aadmi Party's work and initiatives for the well-being of the people. A Question and Answer round will follow.
Since his mega victory in the national election, the PM uses the radio to win support for his agenda and policies largely in rural areas which have no access to television.
The Prime Minister holds forth on various contemporary matters on "Mann Ki Baat" programme on All India Radio every month.
