TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has promised to make Delhi pollution-free in the next five years if re-elected in the upcoming assembly elections. Addressing his third town hall meeting in Delhi, Mr Kejriwal said his government took several steps to tackle pollution and managed to reduce it by 25 per cent.
“But if re-elected, I will make Delhi pollution-free in the next five years,” Mr Kejriwal said. Responding to a question, the Delhi chief minister also promised to make bus rides free for students after elections. “After the election is over and the government comes to power again, we will make bus rides free for students also,” he said.
Other
promises made by him included providing drinking water straight from taps, and
preventing sealing drives when the AAP wins MCD elections. Taking a dig at
BJP’s recently-released ”Aarop Patra” (chargesheet), Mr Kejriwal said it is
certain that AAP is forming the government in Delhi. “Let the BJP give its
suggestions. We will include the same in our manifesto,” he said.
