Development of Old Delhi will now be a priority for both the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) and the state government, said Delhi BJP President Harsh Malhotra on Wednesday after the saffron party won the civic body polls after 24 years.
Calling it a “historic” day, particularly for Old Delhi residents, Malhotra said that by electing a BJP Zonal Chairperson in the City and Sadar Zones, municipal councillors connected Old Delhi with the development vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, creating a unique milestone.
