Delhi witnessed a heated protest as Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) councillors demonstrated outside Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh's office on Monday, highlighting their discontent over the omission of a proposal to remove user charges from the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) agenda.
This protest follows the recent MCD polls, where the BJP gained control, and its leadership promised to abolish these charges. However, AAP councillors accused the BJP mayor of neglecting to include the proposal for discussion in the current month's House session.
Led by Leader of the Opposition Ankush Narang, the councillors carried placards and shouted slogans, demanding a meeting with the mayor to discuss their grievances. They argue that the BJP is avoiding real issues despite the mandatory collection of user fees outlined by the Solid Waste Management bylaws, monitored by the Supreme Court.
