NEW DELHI:
The BJP has fallen so low that it is bringing disrepute to ex-PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s name for political mileage. Today, all three MCD LOPs of the AAP informed how the BJP ruled MCD has shut all food counters established under the Atal Aahar Yojna. They stated — BJP is such a hypocrite that it shut all the food counters after promoting them with all their might throughout Delhi. How and why did the BJP ruled MCD give away the land of these food counters to its MP Gautam Gambhir’s trust? BJP ruled MCD has cheated the people of Delhi after promising to give them a full meal for Rs 10.
South MCD LOP Shri Prem Chauhan said, “Today, the true face of the BJP has emerged in front of the public: how it mistreats those who nurtured its rise has become clear today. Ex-PM Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s name, the man who was honoured with the Bharat Ratna, has been brought into disrepute today. The BJP released its election manifesto for the 2017 MCD elections. Manoj Tiwari was the BJP’s President at the time. He highlighted the Atal Aahar Yojana, in which they were supposed to provide meals for Rs 10. The BJP put up food counters at various locations in December 2017. When the budget was presented the following year, there was a lot of applause for the project. Following that, it was stated in the report of Standing Committee Chairman Col Oberoi that they will increase them from 4 counters to 40. It was inaugurated by prominent legislators. Meenakshi Lekhi was seen eating from the counter in Green Park. She was the House Leader at the time and her presence implied that the counter had been actually opened.”
He added, “What happened to the food counter that was built for the poor? Did the BJP make a waste to wonder park from its junk? BJP has made a mockery of a scheme launched in the name of Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ji. When we asked the officials how much money was spent on this scheme, they refused to tell us. They stated that we have not spent even a single rupee to this cause because the BJP has not made any plans for it. The BJP has tinkered with the name of Atal ji and slandered his figure. The Aam Aadmi Party promises that if such a scheme was planned by MCD, it will be implemented by us. We will not lie like them. I would like to remind BJP supporters that Atal ji’s name should not be treated in this manner. Regardless of the party, we all respect Atal ji. Manoj Tiwari, Meenakshi Lekhi, and other BJP leaders should explain what happened to the counters that vanished today. Whether it is about this scheme or regularising DBC and Safai Karamcharis, the BJP is only lying.”
East MCD LOP Shri Manoj Tyagi said, “”The way the Bharatiya Janata Party has always presented itself, its policies, and working methods remain the same. The BJP did not hesitate to campaign in the name of Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ji, whom the entire country reveres. The Jan Rasoi was first built in the name of a person deserving of such honour, and then it was closed a few days later. It is apparent that the BJP intends to use the names of prominent persons just for political purposes.”
He added, “We saw today that Gautam Gambhir has been chanting ‘Jan Rasoi’ all across Delhi. Every newspaper and television channel broadcasted Jan Rasoi’s inauguration. It was talked about all over Delhi. This work was carried out under the BJP’s deceptive scheme. The Jan Rasoi was opened on MCD land. When officials inquired about how this sloped land was granted to them, neither the MCD official nor the BJP were able to provide a justification. My query to the BJP is: under what proposal was this sloping land provided to Gautam Gambhir’s trust? Second, you make a lot of fuss about this mass diet plan, but when people arrive to eat in the afternoon, it’s closed.”
He stated, “We had it checked several times, but their public kitchen was always closed. First and foremost, you must halt your hollering. Second, you’re dancing to Gautam Gambhir’s kitchen tunes today. Is his name now more well-known than Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji’s? This is extremely dishonourable. The poor people’s sentiments are used for political purposes. The BJP used to claim that for ten rupees, it would provide enough food for the needy, but all of these policies are based on lies. The people of Delhi have fully realised this, and the BJP will have to contend with it in the upcoming elections.”
North MCD LOP Shri Vikas Goel said, “The BJP launched the Atal Aahar Yojana while claiming that it would provide enough food for the poor for just Rs 10. However, all of the food counters were quickly closed. It is a pity that the BJP has used politics to make fun of the poor’s hunger. It seems BJP was looking for applause by luring the poor with bread. Why did you show them happiness that you couldn’t provide? Today, there are no food counters where they used to be. Kitchens were only open for public show before being silently shut. In the name of Atal Bihari Vajpayee, people’s sentiments have been hurt by the BJP. The public will never forgive you, and the public will avenge every lie in the upcoming MCD elections.”
