As the party meeting concludes before the commencement of the assembly session, Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Virendraa Sachdeva on Sunday said that the ruling party was working with an agenda to transform the national capital into a developed space.
Talking about the party meeting held today, he said that the BJP MLAs gave inputs regarding carrying out development works in their constituencies to assist people. "Tomorrow, the Delhi assembly session will commence. BJP MLAs often meet before the assembly session starts. We met with the Delhi Chief Minister, the entire cabinet, and party MLAs. Our government is working only on one agenda: to transform Delhi into a developed capital. In today's meeting, all participants gave inputs on how to progress with development works in their areas, to assist people. We need to move in this direction," Sachdeva told reporters during a press conference. In a veiled attack against the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Sachdeva said that the BJP government's work will shun those who "looted Delhi". Highlighting the efforts the newly appointed cabinet is taking, he added that the government will focus on completing unfinished works in the national capital. After today's meeting, it is clear that our government in Delhi will finish (the incomplete works). You have seen that our ministers, including the Chief Minister, have taken stock of the works in the last four days. It is our responsibility to fulfil people's expectations. Along with this, our work will also shun those who looted Delhi.
