Kejriwal today announced his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)s "10 gurantee"
ahead of the Delhi Municipal Corporation elections on December 4. "Vote
for those who run Delhi, not those who stop its growth," said the Chief
Minister.
1. Mr. Kejriwal stated that the first guarantee would be to
beautify Delhi. "It's sad to see all the garbage, filth, and drains. There
will be no new garbage dumps in Delhi. We will dispose of garbage - it's not
rocket science," he explained.
2. The AAP leader promised to clean up Delhi's streets and
lanes, as well as renovate all schools and hospitals run by the Municipal
Corporation of Delhi (MCD).
3. Mr Kejriwal promised a "corruption-free MCD" and
promised to make the approval of building plans easier and more transparent.
4. "We will have a scheme for charging a fee to regularise
minor violations so that people are not blackmailed," Mr Kejriwal said.
5. He also promised to "once and for all" solve the
parking problem and rid the city of stray dogs, cows, and monkeys.
6. Mr Kejriwal also promised to make Delhi a "city of
parks," to confirm all temporary civic employees and pay them on time, to
end "Inspector Raj" or a strict licencing regime, and to reopen
closed shops.
7. "I want to tell traders that they should trust their
brother," Mr Kejriwal said. He also stated that AAP would designate proper
zones for vendors to avoid harassment.
8. Mr. Kejriwal also made a prediction for the MCD election.
"The BJP will win fewer than 20 seats this time," he predicted.
9. The results will be announced on December 7. For the past 15
years, the BJP has ruled the MCD. The BJP won 181 seats in the 250-seat civic
body in the 2017 elections, increasing its total from the 2012 election (138).
10. In 2017, the AAP ran in civic elections for the first time and
won 49 seats, displacing the Congress (which won 31 seats) as the MCD's second-largest party.
