Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Tuesday campaigned for party candidates in Punjab and said like the BJP earlier propagated ‘Gujarat model', AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal was publicising his 'Delhi model', which she said was also a "failure".
Riding a tractor with Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi in Rupnagar district as part of her ‘Jansampark Abhiyan', Ms Gandhi, who later addressed a gathering, also dubbed the BJP and AAP "two sides of the same coin".
She added that both AAP and BJP are promising a new brand of politics to befool the public.
Claiming that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) "emerged" from the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), she said it has an ideology similar to that of the BJP.
The Congress leader also accused the AAP, the main opposition party in Punjab, of doing nothing in Delhi and said its government has been a "failure".
People must be wary of the Delhi model of governance being touted by the AAP as even the BJP came to power at the Centre showcasing its Gujarat model in 2014, but the reality is now before everyone, she said.
People have seen the reality of the Gujarat model and now AAP is showcasing the Delhi model, she said.
"…In Delhi, there is nothing in the name of improvement in health and educational institutions or employment. Understand these things," she told the audience.
In an apparent dig at Mr Kejriwal and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Congress general secretary said, "Make them understand that one does not become a Sardar by wearing a 'banwati pagri' (turban) on stage (during campaigning).
"Make them understand who the real Sardars are... make them understand that Punjab is Punjabis," she said.
"Form your own government here. AAP will not give you any new politics nor Narendra Modi. Over here, new politics is here," she said, pointing to Mr Channi.
Hailing the Congress-led government in the state, Ms Gandhi said Mr Channi took many courageous decisions during his short stint of 111 days "for the people of Punjab".
"Those who come from outside and talk to you about Punjabiyat, teach them what Punjabiyat means," she said.
Seeking to strike a chord with the locals, Ms Gandhi also mentioned that she was married into a Punjabi family.
Punjab goes to polls on February 20.
