nThe Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) attacked the BJP-ruled municipal corporations after it was ranked poorly in the 2020 cleanliness survey conducted by the Central Government. Senior party leader and MCD in-charge Durgesh Pathak on Thursday said that the BJP-ruled municipal Corporations have tarnished the image of Prime Minister Narendra Modi as all the three civic bodies have been ranked as worst performers in the 2020 cleanliness survey conducted by the Central Government.
Pathak said the survey was done and published by the Union Government where SDMC rank is 31, North MCD rank is 43 and EDMC was ranked 46. The survey was conducted for 47 cities. Pathak said one of the key responsibilities of the municipal corporations of Delhi is cleaning the city but the survey clearly shows that they have miserably failed in their duty.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a cleanliness mission across India. The department under the Prime Minister has also done a cleanliness survey across India. This survey was done in 47 cities. Delhi was also part of the survey. But the BJP councillors and leaders have devastated the sanitation situation of the capital and this has tarnished the image of our Prime Minister,” he said.
“If you try to find out any 10 drains of your locality you will see that the MCDs never cleaned those drains. This is the key reason behind the water-logging problem of Delhi. Whenever it rains the whole city suffers from huge water-logging due to the poor performance of Corporations,” he said. Pathak added one of the key responsibilities of the municipal corporations of Delhi is cleaning the city but the survey clearly shows that they have miserably failed.
“The BJP has done only one thing which is corruption and making money. The Corporations have failed in the sectors of education because they could not provide books to the students in health because they could not give salary to the doctors and they have also failed in cleaning the city,” he said.
