“Every family will get up to 300 units per month free electricity,” Kejriwal told reporters here.“If people in Delhi can get free electricity, then why not free power for people in Goa,” he said.

Going by the numbers, those who should have been in opposition are now ruling the state and those who should have been in power are now in the opposition, he added.“These MLAs who switched sides claimed that they were joining the BJP to get people’s work done.
Did they do people”s work as they claimed? Now people are saying that they switched sides for lure of money. People feel betrayed,” he said.T
