In his address at a rally in South Delhi's Jaitpur area, Singh accused Congress of indulging in the "politics of division" and said people now want to get rid of its "massive corruption" and "inefficiency".
He also alleged that the United Progressive Alliance government had been unable to respond effectively on a range of key matters, including the boundary issue with China, and terrorism.
The BJP president also slammed the Aam Aadmi Party for "misleading" the people of Delhi to "grab power" and then "running away" from its responsibilities.
"It is not a party for 'Aam Aadmi' (common man) as it is run by 'khaas aadmis' (special people)," he said, appealing people to vote for the BJP.
In a separate rally in North West Delhi, Advani slammed the UPA government and asked people to support the BJP in the election.
AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal also held several roadshows, where he attacked the BJP and the Congress and alleged that the two parties had a "setting" between themselves.
He also wondered why he, not his adversaries, was always the target of ink and egg attacks.
During roadshows at a number of areas in New Delhi constituency, the former Delhi chief minister said he was undeterred by the attacks and would continue his fight till his "last breath".
"I was hit with eggs and ink. My car was smashed with iron rods. Why are Narendra Modi and Sonia Gandhi not hit? They have a setting among themselves and we are the ones who have threatened this setting. We will fight till the last breath, no evil force can stop us," he said.
