BJP Accuses AAP Government of Neglecting Development in BJP Constituencies

The BJP legislative group, led by Vijender Gupta, submitted a memorandum to the Delhi Chief Secretary accusing the AAP government of neglecting development work in BJP constituencies. Key issues include lack of CCTV installation, delayed Finance Commission formation, water shortages, poor road conditions, rising pollution, and withheld development funds.

The BJP legislative group, led by opposition leader Vijender Gupta, met with Delhi Chief Secretary on Tuesday, submitting a memorandum alleging that the AAP government is intentionally neglecting development in BJP-represented constituencies.

Among the major concerns highlighted were the absence of CCTV cameras in BJP areas, failure to form the 6th Delhi Finance Commission for four years, severe water scarcity, and roads broken further by monsoon rains. The memorandum also emphasized the government's lapse in presenting 11 pending CAG reports, rising pollution levels, and the failure to issue ration cards to over 90,000 poor citizens.

Gupta claimed that installation of CCTV cameras is ongoing citywide except in BJP-led areas, with development funds also being withheld. Additional allegations included disruptions in municipal financial operations due to delayed Finance Commission formation, halted funds to 12 Delhi University colleges, corruption in hospital construction, and poor road conditions. The BJP group demanded urgent action from the Chief Secretary and announced the opposition will seek government accountability in the upcoming Assembly session on September 26 and 27.
