Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Tuesday launched a fresh attack on the Aam Admi Party (AAP) and former CM Arvind Kejriwal during the Delhi budget session, firing ‘sheeshmahal’ jabs. She exaggerated that the BJP-led government in Delhi is all set to build houses for the poor.
“There is a lot of difference between us… you made promises, we will fulfil them. You abused other states’ governments, we will work together. You made the ‘sheeshmahal’, we will build houses for the poor. You installed (gold) toilets worth lakhs, we will make toilets for the poor…” she said during the budget session.
