New Delhi [India], September 25 (ANI): Delhi Congress President Devender Yadav hit out at Delhi Chief Minister Atishi over comparing a “corrupt leader” like Aam Admi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal to Lord Ram and said Delhi is now ‘Ram Bharose’.
Lamenting the governance in Delhi, Yadav said that Delhi is grappling with water shortages, waterlogging, and a rise in electricity fares.
Speaking to ANI, Devender Yadav said, “I heavily object to a corrupt man who is often in jail, being compared to Lord Ram. Delhi is now ‘Ram bharose’.”
“AAP is exposed. During the summers, Delhi faces water shortage. During monsoons, Delhi faces severe waterlogging. The average electricity billing rate has been increased from Rs 5 to Rs 10. Ill-treated water is being supplied to all of Delhi,” he added.
Hitting out at the Aam Aadmi Party further, the Congress leader said there are “no expectations” from Delhi CM or her council of ministers, as Atishi has portrayed herself as a “dummy candidate.”
“The way Atishi has portrayed herself as a dummy candidate has hurt the feelings of a lot of women who were hopeful of a female CM being more considerate towards women’s issues. But every day there are rape cases. There are no expectations from this government,” he added.
Atishi took oath as the Chief Minister of Delhi on September 22 after she was named successor to the post by AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal.
In an emotional gesture towards Kejriwal, Atishi placed an empty chair beside her CM chair, saying, “This chair belongs to Arvind Kejriwal. Today I took charge as the CM of Delhi. Today I have the same pain in my heart as Bharat ji had. Just like Bharat ji worked by keeping Lord Shri Ram’s sandals, I will take charge as CM for the next four months.” (ANI)
