Salaries of North body employees pending for months: AAP

BJP says Delhi government is withholding funds

The AAP on Friday alleged that the BJP-governed North Delhi Municipal Corporation has not paid salaries to employees for up to three months.

“BJP ruled North body hasn’t paid salaries of safai karamcharis for two months. Dengue breeding checkers, doctors, nurses and teachers are not paid for three months. When the entire country is preparing for Deepavali with great joy and zeal, flocking to the markets, buying clothes, getting bonuses from their employers, there is also a section in Delhi that is suffering,” AAP chief spokesperson Saurabh Bharadwaj said.

Mr. Bharadwaj said that safai karamcharis were our COVID warriors and they served the society bravely during the pandemic. He said that it is sad that the people who step out with their brooms early in the morning haven’t been paid their dues.
