About three months after lieutenant-Governor Najeeb Jung sought clarification from the Delhi Government on its proposal to create dedicated bus lanes, PWD Minister Satyendra Jain said on Tuesday that the AAP Government will send its plan back to the l-G for his nod.
As per the Government’s plan, dedicated bus lanes will be created on major roads across the national Capital. The proposal also advocates slapping of `2,000 fine on those obstructing the plying of buses on such lanes.
“The Government will again send the proposal to the l-G for his approval in next two-three days,” Jain said.
In March this year, the City Government had alleged that Jung turned down its proposal to create dedicated bus lanes in the city’s streets and imposition of `2,000 against the violators of the rules.
However, the l-G’s office had denied the charge and claimed that Jung had just sought clarification from the Government on it, saying that he had sent back the file and asked the Government for PWD’s view on it.
The l-G and the AAP Government have been at loggerheads on a range of issues, including transfer and postings of bureaucrats and formation of Commission of Enquiry.
