Goel attacks Cong govt of neglecting villages in NCR
13 Nov 2013 4:58 AM IST
On this occasion Goel slammed Congress government for neglecting the development of villages in the national capital city.
‘Lakhs of people living in rural Delhi have been pushed to the margins of development in the absence of attention from the government. Delhi villages have lagged behind in terms of development during the last 15 years,’ blamed Goel.
He added, ‘the villages of Delhi are still being governed by laws made more than a hundred years ago. The Congress government has done nothing except paying customary lip service to benefit the people living in Delhi villages. The people are still struggling in these villages for civic amenities like schools, hospitals, railway reservation counters, water and power supply, road transport and even toilets.’
On this occasion BJP’s chief ministerial candidate Harsh Vardhan and senior BJP leader V K Malhotra were also present.
‘The population of villages has increased manifold in recent years. More than one-sixth of the total population in Delhi lives in the villages, but the Lal Dora areas have not been expanded by the Congress government despite several promises made. The Congress’ policies have converted these villages into slums,’ he added.
He promised to ensure all round development of villages, Lal Dora and extended Lal Dora if BJP is voted to power.
