On Sunday, Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena visited Rangpuri Pahari in South Delhi and Kapashera in Southwest Delhi. South Delhi MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri and several officials accompanied him.
Lt. Governor shared a video of his visit to Rangpuri Pahari in South Delhi and Kapashera in Southwest Delhi and said that the residents complained about the frequent power cuts and stinking waterlogged in the alleys and streets.
He said that residents of the area complained of inadequate power supply, irregular water supply and poor garbage disposal. Many residents complained of 8-10 hour power cuts daily and showed high electricity bills despite the Delhi government’s claims of providing free power.
The visit happened when Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) launched a campaign to showcase its achievements during its 10-year rule in the national capital ahead of the 2025 Assembly polls.
“I urge the Former Chief Minister, Chief Minister and Minister concerned of the Delhi government to visit these areas and see the hellish conditions. They must take immediate steps to improve this pitiable state of affairs. Let’s come together and make Delhi great again,” he added.
Responding to Saxena, Kejriwal thanked the Lieutenant Governor for pointing out the government’s shortcomings and said that the government would get the area cleaned at the earliest.
