Senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and chief spokesperson Saurabh Bhardwaj on Saturday alleged that Delhi Development Authority (DDA) owes more than Rs 2,000 crores to North Delhi Municipal Corporation (NMC) and South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC).
The AAP leader said that according to the data, the DDA owes around Rs 857 crores to the BJP ruled North MCD till 31 March 2018 and based on this figure if we calculate the number then it becomes Rs 1,200 crores.
Bhardwaj said that the AAP demands that the BJP should immediately disclose why they have not taken any initiative to get this money from the DDA because both MCD and DDA are under the BJP.
The AAP leader further said, “From the time BJP president Adesh Gupta has become the Delhi BJP chief he has maintained only one line which is that the Kejriwal Government should give some amount to the BJP ruled MCD. Today it is very clear that in front of the BJP ruled MCD there is no other issue.”
“We have also witnessed that the BJP ruled MCD has stopped all the ways from where they used to get revenues like property tax, advertisements, toll tax and others. Today from these sources the revenue is not coming to the BJP ruled MCD but going to the leaders of the BJP,” he said.
