Will Delhi Look Like London if Voted to Power in MCD: Kejriwal

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ AAP will make Delhi look like London if voted to power in the upcoming municipal polls, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said, promising to clean up the national capital. He claimed his two-year-old government has done what the BJP dispensation in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh failed to do in 10-15 years.

“In the assembly polls you gave us 67 seats but this time do not leave any such gap. If we win the MCD polls, we will spruce up Delhi and make it look like London within a year,” he said. While campaigning for the upcoming MCD elections in Uttam Nagar, he sought to woo the residents of unauthorised colonies, places that lack basic amenities.

“We have also sent a proposal to the central government for regularisation of unauthorised colonies. The issue is pending before the Delhi High Court,” Kejriwal said. The AAP chief said his government delivered on the promises he made two years ago while campaigning for the Delhi Assembly polls.

Meanwhile, a few residents of the area led by former Congress MLA Mukesh Sharma showed black flag to Kejriwal during his public rally there. People raised slogans against the Chief Minister and burnt his effigies, alleging the work which began four years ago was not yet completed.
