NEW DELHI: AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal alongside Manish Sisodia and Chief Minister Atishi inspected the crumbling Delhi University road, vowing to fix not just this road, but every stalled project in the capital.
“They tried to stop Delhi’s progress by sending me to jail. But now, I’m back, and nothing will halt the city’s development,” said former Delhi CM Kejriwal.
The road passing in front of the North Campus of Delhi University in the Timarpur assembly constituency has heavy traffic congestion, especially during peak hours. This road has been damaged in many places. During the inspection, AAP chief also sought information from local MLA Dilip Pandey about other broken roads in his assembly constituency.
While talking to the media, Kejriwal also said, “Two-four days ago I met one of their (BJP) big leaders. I asked him what they gained by arresting me. I was very shocked to hear that leader’s answer. That leader told me that by arresting you, the Delhi government has derailed, and Delhi has come to a standstill.”
Kejriwal further said, “I was very sad to hear his answer and was shocked that was their motive behind arresting me only to bring Delhi to a standstill? Was their motive behind arresting me to trouble the people of Delhi and create problems for the people of Delhi?”
“Now that I have come, you don’t worry. All your pending work will start again. All the problems will be solved. We just came to inspect the road passing in front of DU’s North Campus. There is a water pipeline under this road. The road has broken due to this pipeline. This road is used a lot by people. I have talked to CM Atishi about the repair of this road. Now this road will be repaired soon. Apart from this, we will inspect all the broken roads inside Delhi and get them repaired,” he added.
