Coming out vociferously against the allegations made by Delhi Congress chief Ajay Maken, Aam Aadmi Party(AAP) leader and Incharge Punjab Sanjay Singh said that Congress and BJP were trying to run a malicious campaign against AAP as they have failed to discredit AAP in Delhi.

In a press statement, Sanjay Singh said the Congress and BJP were busy carrying out a malicious propaganda against AAP. In an utter disregard to the public interest, the two parties have formed a joint front to obstruct the functioning of the AAP government at every step. But the people have rejected the negative and vindictive politics of both BJP and Congress. The latter was reduced to a cipher in the 2015 assembly polls, said he.

Giving details of the work done by AAP in the first year, Singh has said the first year of the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi has been historic on several fronts.  The electricity tariff was halved with more than 30 lakh families getting the benefit of reduced tariff. In addition, for the first time in a decade the power tariff was not increased.

In the first two months the government through its Anti Corruption Bureau carried out a massive crackdown against corruption and graft.  To derail AAP government’s anti-corruption agenda and to protect powerful people, the Central government forcefully occupied the ACB by sending in the paramilitary forces.  The NDA government carried out this brazen exercise under the garb of Delhi not being a full-fledged state. The Delhi government has challenged the Centre’s illegal takeover of ACB in Delhi High Court and the matter is currently being heard, he said.
