CM Atishi Slams BJP’s Lies On Shakur Basti; Calls Them ‘Anti-Slum’ & ‘Anti-Poor’

Delhi Chief Minister Atishi addressed the Shakur Basti issue, stating that the documents are ‘clear’ and exposing the BJP’s false claims. She further accused the BJP of being ‘anti-slum’ and ‘anti-poor’.

Speaking to the media before filing her nomination for the Delhi Assembly elections, CM Atishi stated, “Yesterday evening, LG Sahab issued a statement that Arvind Kejriwal is lying, but the documents are absolutely clear. DDA meeting was held, and land use was changed, so it is absolutely clear that BJP’s lie has been caught. BJP leaders go to the slums, eat food with the people there, play carrom with the children and after a few months, they demolish all those slums.”

“BJP is an anti-slum party, anti-poor party and apart from demolishing the slums, they have not done any work for the slum dwellers of Delhi till date,” she further asserted.

This followed Arvind Kejriwal’s allegation that the BJP had ‘tendered’ the land for the Shakur Basti slum and accused LG Saxena of ‘changing the rules’.

Earlier, on Sunday, Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena criticized Kejriwal, calling his statement on Shakur Basti ‘a complete lie’.
