Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday, while presenting the Delhi Municipal Corporation (Amendment) Bill, 2022 in the Lok Sabha, tore into the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)-led Delhi government, stating that the latter did not provide the required funds to the city’s three municipal corporations (South Delhi Municipal Corporation, North Delhi Municipal Corporation, and East Delhi Municipal Corporation).
This came a day after Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, while speaking on the recently passed Delhi Budget, spoke about the “rise of the aam aadmi (common man)”, in a reference to the AAP’s recent electoral conquest of Punjab.
