Delhi BJP President Manoj Tiwari on Monday attacked Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for his recent poll promise to abolish house tax.
He even produced two letters of the Delhi government which directed MCD to not provide any concession or rebate in taxes, fee
and charges. During a press conference at state party office here, Tiwari while displaying the letters said that the "dual character" of Kejriwal has come in the limelight and the people of Delhi will definitely identify his "tactics" ahead of MCD elections to be held on April 23.
Last week, Kejriwal, during a press conference at his residence, had promised that Aam Aadmi Party would do away with residential house tax and also waive arrears of property tax if voted to power in municipal polls.
Presenting the two written communications to Urban Development Department while giving loan to East and North MCD, Tiwari said that in one of the letters dated February 4, 2016, the Kejriwal government had directed MCDs to not provide any concession or rebate in taxes, fee or charges levied by them.
Manoj Tiwari was present at the press conference along with former AAP MLA Ved Prakash, who resigned from AAP and joined BJP alleging the Delhi government of not fulfilling its promises.
