Interacting with reporters after visiting the Ghazipur landfill site in east Delhi, Manish Sisodia said the people will vote for the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in the upcoming municipal polls.
Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Wednesday alleged that the BJP-led Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has taken out garbage from the Ghazipur landfill site and dumped it in nearby areas to "give an impression" that its height has come down.
Interacting with reporters after visiting the Ghazipur landfill site in east Delhi, he also said the people will vote for the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in the upcoming municipal polls to clear the "garbage of the BJP", and if the Arvind Kejriwal-led party comes to power in the MCD, it will make the "mountains" of trash disappear from the city in five years.
"For 15 years, the BJP which has ruled the MCD, and what has it done to reduce these mountains of garbage. And, now just to give an impression to people, from a distance, that the height of the Ghazipur landfill has come down, the BJP-led MCD has taken garbage from it and dumped it in nearby areas. This is a conspiracy," Mr Sisodia alleged, adding that the saffron party "lacks the intention to solve the problem".
"Six months ago, these places were all empty. And a wall collapsed here due to this dumping. Thankfully, it happened at night, when no work was going on, else there would have been loss of life and property too," he told reporters.
