September 16, 2013 09:18

Delhi's BJP unit today sought to punch holes in Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit's claim that Delhi is the richest city in the country, saying there is a wide gap between the rich and the poor due to the "flawed" policies of the city's government.

Delhi BJP president Vijay Goel termed as "bizzare" Dikshit's statement that Delhi is the richest state in the country and said, "The chief minister continues to disseminate a pack of lies. Around half of the Delhi population lives in slums, JJ clusters and unauthorised colonies."
