Lashing out at BJP, the Delhi Congress on Thursday alleged that the saffron party is taking credit for pucca makaans for slum dwellers in Delhi. The in-situ development of slums and jhuggis jhopris was the vision of Congress president Sonia Gandhi and the then Sheila Dikshit Government implemented it but now the BJP Government is taking credit .
The BJP in its manifesto for civic body polls, promised to help seven lakh families living in the slums get a pucca house by 2027 under various Central schemes and showcased 3,024 flats in Kalkaji built under Centre’s Jahan Jhuggi Wahin Makaan scheme for dwellers.
