Harsh Vardhan promises honest govt, says party is united

Anointed as BJP's chief ministerial face just six weeks ahead of polls to take on Congress' Sheila Dikshit and AAP's Arvind Kejriwal, Harsh Vardhan today said his top priority is to galvanise the party, which has been grappling with infighting, and promised an honest and people-friendly government.
Exuding confidence of electoral victory, Vardhan, who won the bitter race within Delhi BJP for the CM candidature, said all the party leaders and workers are "going to put their heart and soul" to make BJP victorious in the December 4 polls.
"Leaders and workers in Delhi are going to put their heart and soul together to see that the corrupt Congress is ousted and we have a government which is people-friendly, thoroughly transparent, honest and committed to deliver and take care of the woes of people," he said.

The 59-year-old ENT surgeon, who is known to share a very cordial relationship with RSS, denied that there was any infighting in the party and said all the leaders were working unitedly towards the sole goal of defeating the "corrupt Sheila Dikshit" dispensation.
"There is no infighting in the party. We all are united and working with the singular aim of defeating the Congress government. We are confident of our victory in the elections," Vardhan told PTI.
The four-time MLA from Krishna Nagar constituency, who is known for disarming simplicity, said he will work closely with Delhi BJP Chief Vijay Goel and other senior leaders of the party.

"Individuals and positions are not important. What is important is ideology and vision of the party. As a medium of the party, I have been given responsibility to safeguard the people's interest in coming days. I will try my best to live upto people's expectations," the former Delhi Health Minister said.
He stressed that BJP will fight the election on the plank of proving a clean and corruption free government.
"I want to assure people of Delhi that we will free them from the corrupt Congress government first in Delhi and then at the Centre," he said.
