Speaking to the media, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh slammed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for its promise of a clean Delhi saying they had the responsibility of cleaning the city for the last 13 years, as the BJP is in power in the MCD the body responsible for taking care of cleanliness in the national capital.
"The BJP has released another 'jumla patra' and an order to cheat the people of the city. In the 'Sankalp Patra', the BJP has said that it will stop the free subsidies of the AAP government," Singh said.
He said the BJP has nothing in the manifesto on electricity. "On water, they said they will end the tanker mafia. In fact, they had let it develop."
The MP also said 93 per cent people are already getting piped water in Delhi and they say they will give piped water to all by 2024.
Singh also attacked the BJP for the bad condition of the schools in Uttar Pradesh and Delhi MCD schools over the party's promise to open new schools in the national capital.
"Those who exploited the people through the sealing drive, are now promising an end to the sealing. The BJP was responsible for the sealing in the national capital," the AAP MP said.
Singh added that "the BJP is saying they will end all our health schemes, and bring Ayushman Bharat".
"The minimum wage of Delhi is Rs 14,000 that means no one in the city will be eligible for the Ayushman Bharat scheme. That means, the people will not get our schemes as they (BJP) will end it and also they will not be eligible for the Ayushman Bharat."
He also mocked the BJP for its promise of a "clean Delhi" saying they had the responsibility of cleaning Delhi because they are ruling in the MCD for the past 13 years. "The city has three garbage mountains because of the MCD's failure."
The BJP, in its manifesto, said they will regularise the sanitation workers. "The services are under the Centre. Both MCD and Centre are being ruled by the BJP. What's stopping you until now?" Singh asked.
Singh said the BJP in Haryana is responsible for air pollution in Delhi, "and they are talking about cleaning air in the city".
