"They were engaged in theft, corruption": Virendraa Sachdeva hits out at previous AAP Govt in Delhi

New Delhi [India], October 26 (ANI): Delhi BJP President Virendraa Sachdeva on Sunday criticised the previous AAP government, accusing its leaders of engaging in theft and corruption.
Sachdeva said that the frustration of the previous AAP government stems from the strong performance of the eight-month-old government of Chief Minister Rekha Gupta in the national capital.
Speaking to ANI, Sachdeva said, "The people who have been ousted from power by the people of Delhi are the ones doing politics. The public chased them because these people were engaged in theft and corruption... The reason for their frustration is why the 8-month-old government of Rekha Gupta in Delhi is performing so well..."
Yesterday, Delhi Minister Parvesh Sahib Singh hit back at the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)'s allegation over cleanliness in the Yamuna River, claiming a reduction in faecal coliform level under the BJP government in Delhi, ahead of Chhath Puja.
After AAP Delhi chief Saurabh Bharadwaj shared the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) report, calling the River Yamuna unfit for bathing, the Delhi minister cited the same report to claim that the river is cleaner under the BJP regime.
Addressing a press conference in the national capital, Parvesh Saheb Singh said, "Chhath festival is coming. Festivals are being celebrated with joy since the BJP formed a government in Delhi. The Opposition is creating a ruckus over the DPCC report. I also have the report for 2024. When the AAP leaders say that the Yamuna has not been cleaned, they are not raising a question on us but rather on themselves."
"Delhi Chief Minister, ministers, MLAs, MLCs and BJP leaders are inspecting Chhath ghats. Almost all Chhath ghats are ready, even if there is registration or not. In 2024, the faecal coliform level in Palla was 920, which is 600 today. In Wazirabad, it reduced from 16,000 to 800. At ISBT Bridge, it reduced from 28,000 to 8,000. In ITO, it reduced from 35,000 to 7,000. At Nizamuddin Bridge, it was at 11 lakh MPN per 100 ml to 7,900. 500 MPN is desirable, while 2500 is the maximum permissible category. At Okhla Barrage, it was 18 lakhs, which is reduced to 2,700. In the Agra canal, it reduced from 22 lakhs to 1600. This has happened in the last seven months," he said. (ANI)
