The Delhi BJP held a massive demonstration near the Vidhan Sabha on Wednesday, accusing Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of having a biased attitude towards the three municipal corporations

Member elect of the Standing Committee of North MCD Jai Prakash condemned Kejriwal and said the Delhi government has not yet issued the new zonal structure of the three civic bodies thus withholding the start of administrative and public welfare work by them. 

"Constitution of important statutory committees like the Standing Committee which manages the funds expenditure and the ward committees which keep day-to-day connect with people has not been done yet. We demand immediate approval to ward structure reconstitution proposal pending with Delhi Government," he said.

MLA O P Sharma demanded immediate release of funds as per the IVth Delhi Finance Commission recommendations already accepted by the Delhi Assembly last year.

Delhi BJP general secretary Rajesh Bhatia said the denial of funds to the civic bodies by the government is politically motivated to defame the civic bodies administered by BJP.
