New Delhi, March 6 Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday said the transport system here will be made a model as he flagged off 100 low floor air-conditioned CNG buses from the Rajghat Bus Depot. These buses will be added to the cluster buses feet, which till now didn't had any air-conditioned buses.

Speaking about the buses, Kejriwal said this is the first time in the last 10 years that new AC buses were added to the city transport system.
