Statements from Leaders
Atishi stated, “For two days, Arvind Kejriwal and I inspected the roads of Delhi and found that the condition of roads is very bad. We will try to give pothole-free roads to the people of Delhi by Diwali.”
Manish Sisodia added, “On the instructions of Arvind Kejriwal, I and Saurabh Bharadwaj inspected a few roads of Delhi. We observed that many roads were in a bad condition. BJP has destroyed all the roads of Delhi to trouble the people of Delhi.”
