Party says land was worth ₹200 crore; BJP refutes allegations
The AAP on Wednesday protested outside the BJP headquarters after the North Delhi Municipal Corporation allegedly sold Novelty Cinema’s 1,100 sqm plot worth ₹200 crore for ₹34 crore, the party said. “BJP knows it will be defeated in the civic body elections, so it wants to fill its pocket by selling off public properties through municipal corporations. People of Delhi wants to bring an honest government like the Kejriwal government to the municipal corporation,” AAP national secretary Pankaj Gupta said. Last week, the AAP had alleged that Novelty Cinema’s land worth ₹150 crore has been sold for ₹34 crore and added that there was ‘corruption’ in the deal.
